I have been a Family Law attorney for more than 40 years, representing high-profile and high-net-worth clients. I have guided clients through critical transitions in their lives, with experience in every facet of family law.

After 26 years leading my firm, I combined with the outstanding team at Blank Rome. There, we have done incredible work together, and I have been honored to be ranked Band 1 in Los Angeles for Family & Matrimonial Law by the prestigious Chambers High Net Worth every year since 2020.

I hate tooting my own horn, but I have been fortunate to receive some meaningful recognition throughout my career. Most recently, I received the 2026 Learned Hand Award from the American Jewish Committee Los Angeles and was named a 2026 Women of Influence: Attorney by the Los Angeles Business Journal, a Top 100 Lawyer by the Daily Journal and a Leading Family Lawyer – California by Doyle’s Guide. I have also been consistently recognized among the Top 10 Southern California Super Lawyers, named a Top Women Lawyer by the Daily Journal since 1999, and included in the Los Angeles Business Journal’s LA 500 – The Most Influential People in LA from 2016 through 2024. I was also inducted into the Lawdragon 500 Hall of Fame in 2020 and have been named among its 500 Leading Family Lawyers annually from 2024 through 2027.

Giving back has always been an important part of my life and career. I served as Chair of Public Counsel, the nation’s largest nonprofit law firm, and now serve as Immediate Past Chair. I am incredibly proud of the organization’s work providing free legal services to tens of thousands of people, small businesses and nonprofit organizations each year.
