Philosophy of Practice

Family law is unique because it involves much more than simply the concept of winning and losing -- especially where children are involved. This means balancing aggressive, expert advocacy with sensitivity to the best interests of my clients and their children. I am an accessible counselor and advisor to my clients, and a formidable but fair advocate to my opposing counsel. I am tough and yet professionally courteous and fair-minded. An attorney does not have to behave like a street thug in order to obtain a good and fair result of a family law case, but I will never allow anyone to take advantage of my clients.
