We formed an LLC in January, 2010, and we are now partners. My practice these days breaks down into about 60% divorces (non litigated, collaborative, mediations, negotiated) and 40% estate planning and probate of estates. My tax and business background has been very helpful to this work. I have also been pioneering the area of using mediation to help people go forward in their marriages (marital mediation), and am a frequent presenter on this topics in professional conferences. I also concentrate my practice in prenuptial agreements and write articles and present at conferences on this topic. Mediation prenuptial agreements is an especially positive way to put one in effect with the least amount of rancour and bad feelings. My partners work in the areas of divorce (including litigation) and residential real estate. I still do some tax work..
