About

I am  certified as a specialist in Family Law by the State Bar of California, Board of Legal Specialization.  I am also a mediator and collaborative lawyer.  I have been a small claims judge and am a volunteer mediator for the family law case management calendar in my county.  I work with clients in a variety of methodologies:  a) Traditional Litigation; b) Mediation; c) Collaborative Law; d) Limited Scope Representation.   I help my clients determine what methodology would best serve their needs, and work within that system for the best result possible.  I have worked for mothers, fathers, and have been appointed by the court to represent children. My office philosophy and motto is "Where Kids Matter Most".  I strive to work as a partnership with my clients, and design the best strategy to fit their needs and budget.   I believe continuing education is a lifelong process and participate in many educational endeavors, including being a former instructor for family law paralegals in California .

Shannon navigated my divorce while my employer had me working in 3 states and 2 foreign countries. Shannon limited my appearance in court to just one day. Mediation is the way to go!
