My attorney practice Group is Austin Collaborative Family Lawyers, consisting of 8 independent collaborative lawyers who meet monthly to discuss current collaborative issues and to promote collaborative family law in Austin and across the State.
I am also an active member of an Allied Professionals practice Group known as Collaborative Divorce Professionals Alliance. We promote the interdisciplinary team approach in collaborative family law cases.

| General Comments |
I find that practicing in general civil law as well as family law provides much need balance and strategic insight. I'm Board Certified in Commercial and Consumer Law.
Collaborative cases are not 'easy,' but client satisfaction appears higher than in traditional divorce.
I've handled just under 20 collaborative cases so far. |
