About

For the last 20 years, my practice has been exclusive to divorce and family law cases. I resolve the majority cases without litigation. I routinely navigate complex child custody matters, both inside and outside of the courtroom setting. I address a range of custody issues, including unique custody arrangements/agreements, parental alienation concerns, restricting parental responsibilities, dealing with a narcissistic parent and relocation cases. I customarily work with child psychologists and custody evaluators, and am highly proficient with relevant psychological literature that I draw upon in representing my clients. I have extensive knowledge of financial principles applicable to divorce, enabling superior asset/liability allocation, discovery of hidden income/assets, optimal tax allocation and support payment litigation. Examples of specific contexts include litigation involving: • Appraisal of Residential and Commercial Real Estate • Valuation of Closely Held Companies • Forensic Accounting and/or Tracing • Analysis of Diverse, Complex and/or Prodigious Classes of Assets/Liabilities • Arguments Regarding Upward/Downward Deviation from Guideline Support • Determination of True and Actual Income I have been recognized with numerous awards regarding professional excellence in the field of matrimonial law. I am a multi year recipient of the Avvo Client Choice Award and my firm has been recoginzed as a Top 10 Law Firm for Client Satisfaction (American Institute of Family Law Attorneys). In 2022, I was granted the Elite Lawyer designation in the area of Family Law. Most of my referrals come from former clients, which is something I'm extremely proud of.
