About Carolyn
Biography
As a mediator and attorney, I work closely with clients on a broad range of family law issues. I help people address serious concerns about the division of marital assets, the security of their relationship with their children, and the difficulty of meeting support obligations. I help clients achieve solutions that not only address their immediate problems but also look toward protecting their long-range interests.
Known for my straightforward communication style, I try to explain your rights and options in clear terms. As an advocate, my goal is to help you find creative solutions without increasing conflict.
