Carol is dedicated to helping her clients navigate through the difficult legal process of changing family relationships, to arrive at a resolution they can endorse with confidence, dignity and self-respect. She helps her clients to identify their needs, values, and goals, and to build a financial and emotional foundation for life after the legal process is over. Her goal is to help people with family law problems untangle their lives as economically as possible, while reaching a fair resolution.
Carol places special emphasis on child custody problems, empowering parents to act in the best interests of their children, considering the psychological, financial, and educational needs of their children. Carol has been successful in obtaining or increasing custodial rights for many parents, both fathers and mothers. She is proud that many of her former clients are now working together peacefully with the other parent, rather than battling for their children's hearts and minds.
Where special medical, educational, substance abuse, cross-cultural or disability issues are involved, Carol will help her clients to identify appropriate resources and expertise, educating both the court and the other party about these special circumstances.
"Nothing makes me happier than knowing that a child will have two loving parents, even after the parents can no longer be together as a couple. I try to bring out the best my clients have to offer, and to present their best face to the world. I encourage them and support them in reaching a settlement through negotiation, mediation, or other non-adversarial methods. If it is necessary to go to court to solve the issues, I will be a strong and certain advocate for their interests."
Before entering the legal profession, Carol was a successful business person and entrepreneur.
