As a family lawyer, I believe that trust and honesty are two of the most important qualities.  I also believe in the importance of pursuing collaborative law whenever possible. There are many situations where it makes more sense for a client going through the painful process of a divorce, and all of the negotiations that it entails, to utilize a collaborative approach with his/her spouse/partner and make these decisions outside of court. This helps to alleviate the incredible stress that is already present in such family transitions.

In 2017, I co-authored “Divorce in North Carolina” with my brother, Bill. We wrote this book to help people know what to expect while navigating the legal process of getting a divorce. In terms of working with me, my clients trust me because I approach each case with a strong sense of compassion and help them walk through what is the best solution for them to pursue. I sit down with the client and we speak comprehensively in their first consultation. I ask them about their goals. This session gets us both on the same page so that my advocacy on their behalf is well-matched to their individual situation. This is often the most significant decision a person makes in their lifetime. Leading the way with a collaborative approach can save years of costly fees and undue stress on each family member involved.

If children are involved, I especially like to promote the concept of collaborative law. Pursuing an aggressive divorce and settlement can cause trauma in children who are old enough to understand what is happening. My overall philosophy on the Law follows the tradition set out by our family 50 years ago. We strive for excellence in everything that we do. Everyone deserves to be treated with respect and integrity at all times.
