For over 14 years, I have focused on family law issues in the DC Area and gained national recognition as an author, lecturer and legal commentator, who helps families address their custody and divorce matters either through negotiations, mediation, litigation or the Collaborative Process. I am the tv host of Making It Last, which is a show that I developed to share ideas with expert guests so families can tackle difficult issues in Montgomery County, MD . I am frequently on Sirius XM, and have appeared numerous times on ABC tv and MMC's Money Matters, as well as various panel discussions throughout the DC Area. Bethesda Magazine recently recognized me as a Top Divorce Lawyer, and I have been listed among the best family attorneys by the Washingtonian and MD Superlawyers. Several recent articles in Bethesda Magazine, the Washington Post and ABA Journal have highlighted my efforts to promote settlements outside of court, but above all else my commitment is to assist my clients through the legal process while minimizing the negative financial impact to the family overall.
