Story

For more than ten years, I represented clients through California family law matters, including dissolutions, custody disputes, prenuptial agreements, high-stakes negotiations, and trial. I participated in countless settlement conferences and court hearings and watched how the process worked from the inside.

And I kept seeing the same thing.

Brilliant, capable people — people who ran companies, raised families, made hard decisions every day — completely losing their footing the moment they entered the legal system. It was not because they weren't smart, but because no one was helping them understand what was happening between meetings with their attorney.

That gap is where I work now.

I don't replace your lawyer. I help you become a more informed, prepared, and confident participant in your own case so you can stop feeling like a bystander in a process that's deciding your future.

This is for you if:

You have an attorney, but you leave every call with more questions than answers.
You're facing a decision about assets, custody, settlement, or something else, and you don't fully understand what you're agreeing to.
You're in mediation and you're not sure if what's being proposed is fair, reasonable, or even standard.
You have a mediation session coming up and you want to walk in prepared instead of reacting in the room.
You feel like everyone around you has a role in this process except you.

You don't need someone to tell you it'll be okay. You need someone who can tell you what's actually happening and help you think clearly about what to do next. That's what I'm here for.

Work With Me

Working with me is simple by design.

Everything starts with a free 15-minute call. We talk through where you are, and from there we choose the format that fits.

Every session is built around your situation: your case, your questions, your decisions, your unknowns.

Initial Consult

60 minutes · $600

This is where most clients start. We gather the full picture of your situation, including what's happening legally, what it means practically, what your options look like, and design a custom plan for what comes next.

Scheduled after your discovery call

Six-Session Program

6 × 60 minutes · $3,000

Custom-built after your Initial Consult, for clients who want ongoing support through a longer stretch of the process. Must be used within two months. Sessions are scheduled around your calendar, and payment is arranged separately once the schedule is set.

Mediation Support

Session format varies · Let's talk

Going through mediation is not the same as going through litigation. If you're in mediation and want someone in your corner who can help you understand what's being proposed, what's fair, and what to push back on, reach out and we'll design the right support structure for your process.

About

You deserve to understand what's happening to you.

I spent over ten years as a California family law attorney representing high net worth individuals through dissolution, custody disputes, prenuptial agreements, and post-judgment modifications. I know how divorce cases are built, how attorneys think, and what happens in the rooms you're not in.

I know what matters at a settlement conference and what doesn't, how mediation actually works, what judges look for, and why the legal process so often leaves people feeling more confused than when they started.

That knowledge is what I bring to this work.

That includes mediation. If you are working with a mediator rather than going through litigation, I can help you prepare for those sessions and think through whether what is on the table is reasonable.

I'm not your attorney. I won't give legal advice, and I won't replace the counsel you have. What I will do is help you understand what your attorney is doing, why it matters, and how to show up as an informed, prepared participant in your own case, rather than a bystander in someone else's process.
