After years as a distinguished family law attorney, I established this mediation practice with one mission: to help couples navigate divorce with dignity, efficiency, and fairness. My transition from litigation to mediation was born from witnessing firsthand how costly, emotionally draining, and ineffective the court process can be for families.
As a family law attorney, I've spent my career helping clients through some of life's most vulnerable moments. My practice focused on representing high-profile clients—including professional athletes and entertainers throughout Florida—in complex divorce proceedings, concerning parenting issues, and sophisticated financial matters.
During times of heightened emotion, I guided clients to positive outcomes through steady, strategic counsel and careful planning. It has always been vitally important to me that my clients feel seen, heard, and protected. Active listening, responsiveness, and patient counsel have been central to my preparation and approach.
This experience showed me the tremendous value of an agreed upon resolution which allows for far more creative and personalized outcomes than what can be achieved in court. This realization led me to become a Certified Florida Supreme Court Mediator, where I can help couples find resolution without the adversarial process and confines of traditional litigation.
I am a graduate of the University of Florida Levin College of Law (J.D., with Honors, 2006) and the University of Central Florida (B.A., with Honors, 2003). I have had the honor of being a shareholder at two prestigious law firms. I am AV rated by Martindale Hubbell, and my work has been recognized by Best Lawyers in America in Family Law (2018-2024) and Orlando Magazine's Best Lawyers (2019-2024).
I believe that even in the most difficult circumstances, it's possible to find common ground that preserves dignity, leads to creative solutions, and lays the foundation for a healthier future. This requires that all parties feel truly heard as we work toward resolution. As your mediator, I facilitate this goal by providing the appropriate mix of empathy and efficiency.
