About
All-encompassing counsel for divorcing clientsCorey is the rare divorce attorney who does not focus exclusively on litigation, mediation, or collaboration. Instead, he integrates all three. The result, for clients, is a deep skillset that can meet their needs as they evolve. Corey resolves divorces out of court with a view to minimizing litigation risk and costs. Meanwhile, he litigates divorces with a view toward discovering settlement opportunities. The goal is always to help clients make the best use of their time, money, and emotional energy as they move toward post-divorce life.He believes that having a manageable divorce with a difficult spouse or opponent starts with better thinking, which correlates to making better decisions. He helps clients develop effective legal and emotional strategies for dealing with high-conflict spouses, guiding them through high-stress decision-making, and giving them the support and skills they need to stay smart and sane under pressure. Clients praise both his advocacy and his compassion.In any practice, “making it look easy" only happens with considerable experience and work ethic. Corey, who has been practicing in the field for more than 20 years, has a unique ability to see practical solutions that are efficient and uncomplicated. When divorce brings intense feelings to the surface, Corey’s clients also benefit from his emotional intelligence and discretion. More than an incisive legal tactician, he is also a trusted and creative advisor.

Corey possesses a rare combination of competency and integrity. He cares deeply about his clients and is a skilled advocate. He takes a holistic and practical approach to lawyering.
The last thing I ever thought I would be worrying about was getting a divorce let alone getting a family/divorce lawyer. Corey was recommended to me by a friend of a friend. Isn't that always how it goes? Upon meeting him I was a mess. He was professional, knowledgable, and immediately put me at ease. He never once told me what to do. What he did was explain to me the law and my options. Corey truly wants the best for families and is a voice of reason when you may not be there yet. He was aggressive but fair and advocated for me and my son to get us the best possible outcome for our whole family. Did I mention this was 7 years ago already(!!) He continues to keep in touch and reaches out to see how my son and I are doing. Divorce court can be a very ugly place but Corey navigated me away from that and focused on what was best for me and my son. I am forever grateful to have had him by my side.
No one in the legal profession cares more about their clients or what they are going through emotionally when it comes to divorce or custody or family law conflicts. I would recommend Corey to ANYONE after working with him through an explosive divorce and heart-wrenching relocation battle. I still read a book he found for me during my divorce, over and over, to help me deal with a very difficult human being. In a world where we trend towards holistic living, Corey is the future. He practices legal yoga. And his advice and counsel is realistic, sensitive, and intelligent. I'm grateful for him in my life.
