My firm is a family law/domestic violence practice in Healdsburg, California. I have served the beautiful Sonoma County area handling family law and domestic violence matters since 1992. Prior to coming to this area, I practiced family law in Contra Costa, Alameda and Solano Counties since 1986.

I possess high academic credentials and maintain strong community ties. I am committed to the pursuit of excellence, communicating effectively and demonstrating the strictest personal and professional ethics, as well as the utmost concern for my clients.

I utilize the latest technology and cost-effective methods to provide services in a timely, client-oriented manner, in a friendly and professional environment. My approach focuses on each client's background, needs and goals. I am committed to responding promptly to telephone calls, to reporting on cases regularly and to minimizing and eliminating risk by informing clients of significant changes in the law.

My dedication to quality, understanding of the law, trust and respect are the foundation for my long-standing relationships with clients and the community.
