Specialises in divorce, non-marital domestic relationships, collaborative practice, spousal support, child custody and support, complex business valuation and distribution matters, pre and post nuptial agreements, and Hague Convention wrongful removal and return cases. Is a frequent lecturer throughout the year for family law organisations including the State Bar of Michigan Family Law Section, Grand Rapids Bar Association Family Law Section, Institute for Continuing Legal Education, and the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.
