Family Attorney | Jan 08
Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community
"I have known Hal for over 20 years. He is one of the most highly respected attorneys in the Sacramento family law community. He is a champion of Collaborative Practice and out of court divorce, and he has worked tirelessly to educate the legal community, as well as his clients, regarding the destructive impact of litigated divorce. Hal has received some of the highest legal honors and recognitions, but he is a practical and down-to-earth practitioner with compassion and a sense of humor. It is always a pleasure to work with Hal and I endorse him."
