WORK HISTORY
Partner and Mediator @Connect Family Law
After being a family lawyer for over 13 years, coupled with my own personal experience with divorce, I have come to understand the difficult transition that comes with the end of a relationship. This experience has put me in the unique position of being able to provide clients with a clear picture of what is to come and how to plan for it. As well as provide clients with guidance and education on how to deal with the day-to-day realities of a separation.While I advise clients on all areas of family law (including child support, spousal support and parenting), I specialize in creating workable and creative solutions for the division of businesses and trusts (including the tax implications of those divisions). This expertise carries over to my practice as a certified family law mediator. I also prepare marriage and cohabitation agreements dealing with business and property interests, family trusts and anticipated inheritances. As a result of seeing first-hand the difficulties faced by couples in a separation, I prepare marriage and cohabitation agreements with an eye to eliminating or decreasing acrimony should a separation occur in the future.
