Massachusetts Council on Family Mediation

My focus is on divorce mediation, family and collaborative law. I believe that family law is the most important and rewarding area of law in which a lawyer can practice. It is also an area of law in which clients need experienced, skilled, and compassionate professionals to help them navigate the process.



I have practiced law for over 30 years and I am admitted to the bar in both Massachusetts and New York. In addition to family law, my background includes experience in real estate and intellectual property matters (focus on artists, museums and non-profits).

In 2001, I was formally trained as a mediator. Over the past several years, I have trained new mediators in basic and divorce mediation for several area community mediation programs. 

I was also the Coordinator of Court and Divorce Mediation Services at a community mediation program in Cambridge.



I am a former Vice President of the Massachusetts Council for Family Mediation. I am a member of the Massachusetts Collaborative Law Council, the Massachusetts Association of Trial Attorneys and the Massachusetts Bar Association Family Law Section. I graduated from Whittier College School of Law (J.D.) and Boston University (B.S.). I also received a Certificate in Museum Studies from Tufts University.
