Catherine Conner
I have been a collaborative attorney since 1997 and a leader in bringing interdisciplinary collaborative practice to Sonoma County. I was the founding President of Collaborative Council of the Redwood Empire, a multi-disciplinary, multi-practice area practice group. I am the co-author of Collaborative Practice Materials, a practice manual.
I have practiced family law in Sonoma County since 1983 and was certified as a Family Law Specialist in 1992. I have been selected as a Northern California Super Lawyer since 2005 and included in the Best Lawyers in America since 2006. I was also chosen to receive the Rex Sater Award in 2006, a local award given annually for excellence in family law.
I started providing trainings in Collaborative Practice in 2004.
