About Me 

Two people standing together indoors in front of wood paneling, smiling at the camera.

I graduated law school in Portland, Oregon and moved home to Connecticut to practice law with my father. For more than two decades I have worked on hundreds of divorce cases, involving everything from best friends who just could not be married to each other anymore to bitter enemies bent on each others misery and destruction.

I believe that my experience in and out of the trenches gives me unique insight into how to help people survive their divorce with the least possible amount of personal/emotional/financial damage.

Not everyone needs a divorce, but if you need one, you deserve to Love Your Divorce!
