Where to Start Where To Start
Sometimes a consultation is all you need.
We view consultations as a service in and of itself; not simply a sales pitch to hire us as your lawyers.
We will analyze your situation and present realistic options so you can intelligently decide how to proceed,
including approaches to handling the matter yourself with minimum involvement and expense of a lawyer.
We will be the first to tell you whether or not you even need a lawyer.
Call or e-mail us to schedule a 1-hour consultation.

Philosophy Philosophy
~Thorough preparation and analysis of every case to be in a position to settle on reasonable terms acceptable to the client as soon as possible and in a cost-efficient manner.
~Letting the client know the probable outcome as accurately as possible
in the first interview in terms of property division and support obligations, so that better emotional and financial adjustments can be made.
~Understanding the emotional pain and immobilization of the client
who is often not aware of his own lack of judgment, so that we can
help protect him from self-destructive acts, promises and decisions.

~ Professional excellence based on decades of courtroom experience, continuing education in the law and concentrated
