Unlike other firms which that divide clients between multiple lawyers, I have purposefully chosen to maintain my practice in such a fashion that each and every one of my clients receives my personal attention from the beginning of the case until its end.
"I strongly believe that representing any client is an entrustment, not an entitlement. My clients trust me to do my very best to protect their interests, and I take that responsibility very seriously.
"I realize that the most important things in a person's life — their children, their home, their business — are usually at the center of family law disputes. This can create tremendous stress and be emotionally draining for anyone. I try to alleviate that stress by doing everything possible to achieve a prompt and fair settlement of a matrimonial case.
"I am the first to encourage an amicable settlement if it is fair to my client, and I am extremely easy to work with to achieve that goal. However, if my client is likely to be harmed, I will be as legally aggressive as possible to protect his or her rights."
