Helping You Understand Your Options.
Empowering You to Make Informed Decisions.
Every important legal and financial decision begins with understanding your options.
Whether you are navigating divorce, exploring mediation, considering collaborative law, reviewing a proposed settlement, or buying or selling a home, important legal decisions deserve careful consideration.
My role is to help you identify the issues involved, understand the available options, and consider the legal, financial, and practical implications of each alternative so you can make informed decisions that align with your goals and priorities.
I do not make decisions for my clients or substitute my judgment for theirs. Instead, I provide the information, guidance, and perspective needed to evaluate the available choices and move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
What You Can Expect
When you work with me, you can expect thoughtful, practical guidance tailored to your circumstances.
I take the time to listen, understand what is most important to you, identify issues that may need further consideration, explain the available options, and discuss the legal and financial implications of each approach.
My goal is to provide clear explanations and practical guidance so you can make informed decisions with confidence.

Divorce and Family Law
Divorce and family law decisions can affect your finances, family, home, and future.
I represent individuals who need independent legal advice and advocacy while helping them understand the options available for resolving their matter. My divorce and family law practice includes negotiated settlements, uncontested divorce, limited legal assistance, and representation when court involvement is necessary.
My approach is focused not only on resolving the immediate legal issues, but also on helping clients understand the longer-term legal, financial, and practical implications of the decisions they are making.
Mediation & Collaborative Law
Not every divorce needs to be resolved through litigation. For couples who want to work toward an agreement outside of court, I provide divorce mediation services helping both parties identify the issues that need to be addressed, understand their options, and work toward an informed agreement.
I also represent clients in collaborative divorce, where each spouse has independent legal counsel but commits to resolving the divorce through a structured, non-adversarial process rather than litigation.
The goal is not simply to reach an agreement, but to help ensure that the decisions being made are informed, workable, and appropriate for the circumstances.
Real Estate Law
I have over 30 years of experience in residential real estate from working as a real estate paralegal and as an attorney since 2002 representing buyers, sellers, and lenders in Massachusetts real estate transactions.
That experience also provides an additional perspective in divorce matters involving the marital home or other real estate assets. Issues involving a sale, refinancing, a buyout, mortgage obligations, or the decision whether to retain or transfer real estate can have significant legal and financial consequences.
My real estate background allows me to help clients better understand those issues as part of the broader decisions they may be making during divorce.
