Finding solutions collaboratively
Since my call to the Manitoba Bar in 2009 I have been attracted to family law due to my desire to assist families through the emotionally and intellectually challenging issues they face when there is a breakdown of a relationship. I have been practising collaborative law since my training in 2011.
I strive to provide caring and considerate legal guidance to my clients as they face the difficult issues surrounding their separation.
I believe that for most individuals there is a better process than Court to assist with the reorganization of their family. I believe in collaborative and cooperative methods to resolve conflict. I aim to help my clients move forward with their new reality in way that preserves relationships by prioritizing the children. I believe separating parents want to do the best for their family and deserve guidance that aligns with their goals of resolving their separation fairly, respectfully and efficiently. I understand the cost of the legal process is a real and valid concern and will be transparent about the costs throughout.
I believe that the collaborative process to dispute resolution provides solutions that will suit you and your family’s current and future needs.
I offer services in various areas of family law including, separation and divorce, custody, breakdown of common law unions, support issues, Cohabitation Agreements, Pre-Nuptial Agreements, Consent Court Orders, uncontested divorces and property divisions all with a focus of resolving matters cooperatively.
I believe in continuing education and am regularly involved in workshops and seminars which enhance alternative methods of dispute resolution. I am an active member of Collaborative Practice Manitoba.
It is important to me that my clients are well informed about their choices and feel supported through the process. I will be with you every step of the way.
