Law Firm Overview

As an experienced Orange County family law attorney and Certified Family Law Specialist, I care about my clients and understand the turmoil they are going through. I know that my job is to minimize that trauma to whatever extent that I can.

My practice focuses exclusively on family law and every person I serve comes to me with a unique set of circumstances. My job as your attorney, and your advocate, is to get you through this difficult process as whole as possible. Working together with you, I will help you to find the solutions that are right for you.

I practice General Family Law and Divorce, including marriage dissolution, community property division, mediation, collaborative law, settlements, legal separations, and issues in military divorce.

A Family Law Specialist certification by the State Bar of California requires that the attorney have actual experience in every area of family law and a substantial record of court cases of specific types. In addition, the attorney must have served as a judge-appointed arbitrator, special master, or judge pro tem on numerous occasions and have completed certain legal education requirements. Certification is then dependent on the attorney passing a rigorous examination. Finally, continued certification requires continued service to the law and ongoing educational requirements. Less than one percent of California's nearly 200,000 lawyers have achieved this designation.

I offer special hours appointments, bilingual services, and accept credit cards.
