We pride ourselves on our involvement in the community and charitable organizations. We structure our firm around the key principles of results, privacy and care. These key principles influence how we work with each of our clients and have directly contributed to our decades of success.

We offer an array of services. In addition to litigation and appeals, we also provide alternative dispute resolution services including collaborative and cooperative law, mediation and arbitration. We also handle assisted reproductive technology and adoption matters, as well as drafting pre and postmarital agreements.
