About
I am dedicated to providing excellent advocacy, problem-solving and mediation to assist clients and their families. My practice includes a wide range of both complex financial and child-related issues, including divorce and domestic partnerships. I enjoy travel and often combine trips with trainings for mediation and collaborative professionals to various overseas destinations. My partner and I recently opened the Family Mediation Center (www.familymediationcenter.org) to provide a resource for couples who want joint education and guidance, rather than each hiring a lawyer. We work with lawyer mediators, child/family specialists and financial experts to meet the specific needs of each family.

Sue Hansen and her team were gentle, professional, efficient, and truly caring as I went through the divorce process. The Commissioner conducting my final hearing stated, “this is not a woman state, this is not a man state, this IS a kid state.” Sue and her team exuded that very important piece into all of our meetings. The level of hurt I had behind the reason for the divorce impacting my children was alleviated as best as possible through the mediation process. Excellent guidance was provided in all components of this situation. Sue and her staff were exemplary and compassionate while still aiding me through the divorce system itself. I was told by multiple people, “it will get better.” With the help of Sue, she was a big factor in making that advice true. You will not regret the help of Sue, especially if you have children.
As a client (who is also a lawyer), I was extremely impressed by Sue's skill in handling my divorce and her professionalism in the courtroom. Just as important was the emphasis she placed on meeting the needs of my children during divorce and reducing conflict for their sake.
Susan Hansen came highly recommended to me, and I can appreciate why. I was going through a difficult divorce, including considerable disputes over family assets, child placement and future monies. Sue Hansen is an excellent lawyer. She possesses all the skills one would want in a lawyer, including the ability to analyse small details, a clear communication style, and a superior level of frankness/trust. But these are not the qualities that set her apart. Sue Hansen posseses a breadth of experience that allows her to see beyond the immediate situation; she has the ability to quickly establish a context. Sue asked me to step back and re-frame my situation. Sue wanted me to 'not live in reaction to,' but rather to focus on constructing a better future for both myself and my children. After a few meetings, she was able to understand my ex spouse's motivations and approach. Sue was quick to adjust our plan when it became apparent that we were reaching a roadblock. She was continiously working to keep the process moving forward. Sue was also willing to not budge on factors that I considered to be of the highest priority; I greatly valued her steadfastness. Sue Hansen possesses this incredible gift of being comforting, but also firm with her clients. She helps her clients see what is best for all members involved. She not only was working on negotiating with my ex spouse and her legal team, but just as importantly, Sue was helping me to negotiate with my various selves-- the emotional, the analytical, the defiant, the uncertain. She helped me stay on course and never did I feel like I was involved in a hopeless battle of wills. Her philosophical approach is matched only by her outstanding strategic mind. Despite numerous challenges, Sue was able to help formulate a final agreement that was livable, fair and put my children in the best position possible. I am stepping away from one of my most heartfelt tragedies with a sense of hope for my own future and for my children. I do not believe this conclusion would have been possible with any lawyer other than Sue Hansen.
Sue Hansen helped me through a challenging collaborative divorce. She was far more than a lawyer I hired. She was a coach, mentor, mediator and guide to me, my spouse and her attorney, who had limited experience in the collaborative process. Always on top of events and keeping me well informed, Sue Hansen is Immensely professional and a true pioneer in the collaborative field.
I cannot say enough good things about Attorney Hansen. I was clueless about the divorce process when I first made an appointment to see her, and she expertly guided me through an incredibly complicated and stressful process and helped me achieve the best possible outcome I could have hoped for. She carefully explained what steps she recommended and why, and empowered me to fully participate in the decision-making process. Attorney Hansen is brilliant, trustworthy, fair, tenacious, and particularly dedicated to the well-being of children. My life, and my daughter’s life, are forever changed for the better because of her. Sue Hansen is my hero, and the best decision I ever made was choosing her as my divorce attorney.

Sue Hansen helped me through a challenging collaborative divorce. She was far more than a lawyer I hired. She was a coach, mentor, mediator and guide to me, my spouse and her attorney, who had limited experience in the collaborative process. Always on top of events and keeping me well informed, Sue Hansen is Immensely professional and a true pioneer in the collaborative field.
I cannot say enough good things about Attorney Hansen. I was clueless about the divorce process when I first made an appointment to see her, and she expertly guided me through an incredibly complicated and stressful process and helped me achieve the best possible outcome I could have hoped for. She carefully explained what steps she recommended and why, and empowered me to fully participate in the decision-making process. Attorney Hansen is brilliant, trustworthy, fair, tenacious, and particularly dedicated to the well-being of children. My life, and my daughter’s life, are forever changed for the better because of her. Sue Hansen is my hero, and the best decision I ever made was choosing her as my divorce attorney.
Sue Hansen and her team were gentle, professional, efficient, and truly caring as I went through the divorce process. The Commissioner conducting my final hearing stated, “this is not a woman state, this is not a man state, this IS a kid state.” Sue and her team exuded that very important piece into all of our meetings. The level of hurt I had behind the reason for the divorce impacting my children was alleviated as best as possible through the mediation process. Excellent guidance was provided in all components of this situation. Sue and her staff were exemplary and compassionate while still aiding me through the divorce system itself. I was told by multiple people, “it will get better.” With the help of Sue, she was a big factor in making that advice true. You will not regret the help of Sue, especially if you have children.
As a client (who is also a lawyer), I was extremely impressed by Sue's skill in handling my divorce and her professionalism in the courtroom. Just as important was the emphasis she placed on meeting the needs of my children during divorce and reducing conflict for their sake.
Susan Hansen came highly recommended to me, and I can appreciate why. I was going through a difficult divorce, including considerable disputes over family assets, child placement and future monies. Sue Hansen is an excellent lawyer. She possesses all the skills one would want in a lawyer, including the ability to analyse small details, a clear communication style, and a superior level of frankness/trust. But these are not the qualities that set her apart. Sue Hansen posseses a breadth of experience that allows her to see beyond the immediate situation; she has the ability to quickly establish a context. Sue asked me to step back and re-frame my situation. Sue wanted me to 'not live in reaction to,' but rather to focus on constructing a better future for both myself and my children. After a few meetings, she was able to understand my ex spouse's motivations and approach. Sue was quick to adjust our plan when it became apparent that we were reaching a roadblock. She was continiously working to keep the process moving forward. Sue was also willing to not budge on factors that I considered to be of the highest priority; I greatly valued her steadfastness. Sue Hansen possesses this incredible gift of being comforting, but also firm with her clients. She helps her clients see what is best for all members involved. She not only was working on negotiating with my ex spouse and her legal team, but just as importantly, Sue was helping me to negotiate with my various selves-- the emotional, the analytical, the defiant, the uncertain. She helped me stay on course and never did I feel like I was involved in a hopeless battle of wills. Her philosophical approach is matched only by her outstanding strategic mind. Despite numerous challenges, Sue was able to help formulate a final agreement that was livable, fair and put my children in the best position possible. I am stepping away from one of my most heartfelt tragedies with a sense of hope for my own future and for my children.

I do not believe this conclusion would have been possible with any lawyer other than Sue Hansen.
Sue Hansen helped me through a challenging collaborative divorce. She was far more than a lawyer I hired. She was a coach, mentor, mediator and guide to me, my spouse and her attorney, who had limited experience in the collaborative process. Always on top of events and keeping me well informed, Sue Hansen is Immensely professional and a true pioneer in the collaborative field.
I cannot say enough good things about Attorney Hansen. I was clueless about the divorce process when I first made an appointment to see her, and she expertly guided me through an incredibly complicated and stressful process and helped me achieve the best possible outcome I could have hoped for. She carefully explained what steps she recommended and why, and empowered me to fully participate in the decision-making process. Attorney Hansen is brilliant, trustworthy, fair, tenacious, and particularly dedicated to the well-being of children. My life, and my daughter’s life, are forever changed for the better because of her. Sue Hansen is my hero, and the best decision I ever made was choosing her as my divorce attorney.
Sue Hansen and her team were gentle, professional, efficient, and truly caring as I went through the divorce process. The Commissioner conducting my final hearing stated, “this is not a woman state, this is not a man state, this IS a kid state.” Sue and her team exuded that very important piece into all of our meetings. The level of hurt I had behind the reason for the divorce impacting my children was alleviated as best as possible through the mediation process. Excellent guidance was provided in all components of this situation. Sue and her staff were exemplary and compassionate while still aiding me through the divorce system itself. I was told by multiple people, “it will get better.” With the help of Sue, she was a big factor in making that advice true. You will not regret the help of Sue, especially if you have children.
As a client (who is also a lawyer), I was extremely impressed by Sue's skill in handling my divorce and her professionalism in the courtroom. Just as important was the emphasis she placed on meeting the needs of my children during divorce and reducing conflict for their sake.
Susan Hansen came highly recommended to me, and I can appreciate why. I was going through a difficult divorce, including considerable disputes over family assets, child placement and future monies. Sue Hansen is an excellent lawyer. She possesses all the skills one would want in a lawyer, including the ability to analyse small details, a clear communication style, and a superior level of frankness/trust. But these are not the qualities that set her apart. Sue Hansen posseses a breadth of experience that allows her to see beyond the immediate situation; she has the ability to quickly establish a context. Sue asked me to step back and re-frame my situation. Sue wanted me to 'not live in reaction to,' but rather to focus on constructing a better future for both myself and my children. After a few meetings, she was able to understand my ex spouse's motivations and approach. Sue was quick to adjust our plan when it became apparent that we were reaching a roadblock. She was continiously working to keep the process moving forward. Sue was also willing to not budge on factors that I considered to be of the highest priority; I greatly valued her steadfastness. Sue Hansen possesses this incredible gift of being comforting, but also firm with her clients. She helps her clients see what is best for all members involved. She not only was working on negotiating with my ex spouse and her legal team, but just as importantly, Sue was helping me to negotiate with my various selves-- the emotional, the analytical, the defiant, the uncertain. She helped me stay on course and never did I feel like I was involved in a hopeless battle of wills. Her philosophical approach is matched only by her outstanding strategic mind. Despite numerous challenges, Sue was able to help formulate a final agreement that was livable, fair and put my children in the best position possible.
