Since 1997, Laurie has provided compassionate divorce legal and mediation services to help families protect their children and finances while avoiding stressful court battles.
Fewer than 5% of divorce cases actually go to trial. Yet many families spend thousands of dollars on litigation, only to end up compromising and reaching their own agreements. There are more effective options, options that give you more control
over the results. Click here to learn more, or contact Laurie to help you explore these alternatives so you can achieve the results you need - without the stress and expense of a courtroom battle.

Thank you for simplifying this for us! We didn’t know how to start, or how to figure things out, and your guidance really made a difference for us.

I'm so glad we used mediation. I was afraid mediation would mean being nice and giving up what I wanted. Instead, Laurie's different ideas helped both of us get what we wanted. Thanks, Laurie!
