DIVORCE/FAMILY LAW COACHING
You’ve made the crucial decision to separate from your partner—now it's time to take action.
Now that you have made this important decision, where do you begin? Navigating a family law case is a journey. As your Divorce Coach and Certified Divorce Specialist, I can provide insight into this process. With over 75,000 hours of experience in family law as a litigation paralegal, I have worked closely with thousands of clients across various representation models, including full-representation, consulting attorney/client relationships, mediation processes, collaborative divorce, limited scope cases, and unbundled services. Drawing from this extensive background, I can guide you in selecting the representation model that best suits your needs. My strong commitment to my clients is evident in my practice—I limit the number of cases on my caseload so I am readily available to meet my clients’ needs and the demands of their cases, which are often beyond their control. As your Divorce Coach, I provide compassionate guidance while honoring and supporting the roles of your other divorce professionals, helping you get the most out of these relationships while saving time, money, and headaches.
The Lawgical Divorce Family Law Attorney Selection Coaching Package.
I WILL PAY FOR YOUR INITIAL CONSULTATION WITH AN ATTORNEY OF YOUR CHOOSING! With my “F/L Attorney Selection Coaching Package”, together we will determine the best course of action for your unique situation. I become your thinking partner during the selection and investigation process, working with you to find an attorney that aligns with your goals and desired approach. We work together to ensure you are fully prepared for attorney involvement and that you make the best representation decision for your situation. The “F/L Attorney Selection Coaching Package” entails:
1) Determining what representation model, whether full-representation, a consulting attorney/client relationship, mediation, collaborative divorce, or unbundled services, best aligns with your situation, needs, life, and goals;
2) Developing a short list of family law attorneys with the reputation, skillset, experience, and specialized training to partner with you as you navigate the financial and emotional complexities of your family law matter to ensure your rights are protected, your needs are understood, and your goals are pursued;
3) Working with you to refine your divorce story, as open and honest communication will ensure the attorney understands your concerns and the nuances of your case. Trust is essential in the attorney/client relationship and this begins with your being comfortable sharing sensitive information so you can rely on the attorney's expertise and advice; and
4) Preparing attorney-ready information and documents for the initial attorney consultation so that the complexities of your situation are understood to promote a deep understanding of your case, to develop a more effective working relationship, and to tailor strategies to your goals. We will work together on question development and assembling the moving pieces of your unique situation so you start this process on the right foot with your ducks in a row.
I will accompany you to your initial attorney consultation (optional) when we are fully prepared. With the “F/L Attorney Selection Coaching Package”, the attorney’s consultation is on my dime!* Whether you decide to retain or continue vetting attorneys, either way you will be prepared, informed, and organized going forward.
*Limited to one (1) attorney consultation not to exceed $500.00 per hour for one (1) hour of consultation time.
Experience Matters.
With over 30 years as a Family Law Litigation Paralegal, I have an in-depth knowledge of therapeutic involvement/teams, custody evaluation processes, self-employed business structures, intricate property issues, complicated reimbursement issues, long-term spousal support issues, and countless other family law situations. As your Divorce Coach and Certified Divorce Specialist, I am able to draw on this prior experience and my behind-the-scenes orchestration of cases as I guide and support my coaching clients through their family law matters, focusing on achieving desired outcomes.
Partnering Throughout the Process.
You will enter the family law process prepared and supported. We will work together through your specific situation so you enter the family law process as a prepared, informed, realistic, and credible family law client. This foundation empowers you to engage effectively with your attorney, experts, and mediators, allowing for confident navigation through the complexities of the family law process.

Why I became a Divorce Coach after my Family Law Paralegal Career.
Having witnessed clients either relinquish control or thrive in the divorce process, I became passionate about offering a better approach. As a Divorce Coach, I aim to elevate clients’ experience in their family law case. I understand firsthand that divorce can be one of life’s greatest challenges, especially when children are involved. Together, we will navigate this process and focus on your priorities, ensuring a more empowering and successful journey toward the future you desire.
