We understand that dealing with divorce, custody, visitation and support can be difficult and overwhelming. It is our goal to make it as easy as possible for you. Our focus is on cooperation and the development of workable solutions for all parties involved. However, should your dispute lead to an adversarial proceeding, we will aggressively defend your rights in court.

The divorce process can be complicated, particularly where there are business entities, international issues, or children with special needs.  These complex cases require an experienced attorney, or team of attorneys, to ensure that the process does not become stalled or needlessly contentious.  We have experience dealing with complex dissolution issues, and will work with you to resolve these issues.

In addition to our thriving family law practice, we also have extensive experience representing and advising clients who are or might become involved in a lawsuit as a result of a dispute in such areas as personal injury, construction law and contracts.  We have successfully helped hundreds of clients recover for injuries sustained during automobile accidents, slip and fall cases, work injuries, and more.
