Massachusetts Divorce & Family Mediator & Collaborative Attorney

Did you know that mental health experts consider divorce one of the most stressful experiences people encounter?  Even post-divorce conflict over issues such as child support and parenting can increase anxiety for parents and children alike.  Unfortunately, some people are unable to escape patterns of high conflict or poor communications.

Although divorce is never easy, you and your spouse can minimize the negatives. Avoiding a divorce war is a smart goal. By the time an adversarial, litigation case is over, people are usually frustrated that it took so long, that is cost so much money, and for parents – that working together for the benefit of the kids is more challenging than ever before.

We cannot eliminate the stress and emotions surrounding your Massachusetts divorce or other family law case, but we believe our approach deserves your careful consideration.

We will listen to you carefully and provide you with open and honest feedback – even when it may not be exactly what you are hoping to hear. Let’s explore all of your options and find the best fit for your specific situation.
