| About Me |

(Continued From Home Page)
...I began to question whether the practice of law served my core beliefs and my community. Was I really making a difference in the lives of my clients?
Ultimately I left the practice of law for a short time to start my own international adoption agency. I have a great love for children, and I felt that I could be serving the greater good through this work. After many successful and joyful years with hundreds of children brought home to loving families, I looked inward to see where I might be more of service. My deep dedication to helping to create healthy futures for families and children was still strong.
After experiencing first-hand the destruction and heartache that can occur in divorce, I decided to return to law practice and see how I might help others avoid such hardships and pain. Through my tenacity and dedication to my core values, I have succeeded in developing a thriving, different kind of family law practice: one that recognizes the enormous impact of divorce on individuals and their children and works to create healthy outcomes by minimizing traumatic and brutal litigation. It has been one of the greatest experiences of my life.
I have integrated myself within the law community, forging strong relationships with other like-minded attorneys who are as deeply dedicated to creating healthy futures for their clients as I am instead of tearing apart the past.
At the same time, my adoption practice has expanded greatly from my steadfast dedication to helping children and families come together. I am a nationally recognized adoption practitioner, frequent speaker on adoption and adoption issues and am sought after for my knowledge and wisdom by the bench and bar alike. What a rewarding career! Truly, I feel very blessed.
I live here in Vancouver with my four beloved daughters, two of whom traveled from China to find a home here in our family’s hearts. My children and pets keep me young through their constant joy and laughter. I give thanks every day for my family, my practice, and my life. It is an honor to serve clients and I thank you for your referrals and patronage. |
