A Different Kind of Attorney

About Judy
Since launching my practice in 1994, I’ve worked hard to guide and support my clients through their family law and estate planning matters. While I practice traditional courtroom law, I find that many clients benefit from meditation and collaborative law.
”My goal is to determine the best approach to securing your desired outcome in a time- and cost-efficient manner. I believe that working towards an equitable, intelligent, and open-minded application of the law moves us toward a more just and humane society.
