In 10 years of business, we've been featured on TV dozens of times!

This year marks a decade – 10 years!! – for Transitions Legal, ten years of practicing family law from a mediative approach.

We’ve come a long way, baby!!!

Recently, I was reviewing some of the values and principles I shared when I sat down with Lynne Golodner of Your People LLC in 2013 to brand my new law firm. I said things like…

I have a very personal approach in law.

I do a lot of listening to get a feeling for the person and their issues.

The word compassion keeps coming to mind.

Mediation and collaboration have always been my thing.

It’s more than just a way to practice. It’s a way to work things out, outside of court, not be acrimonious.

In the past 10 years, I've hosted intimate events to bring clients and referral partners together

I did a happy dance when I read over these notes because it shows how consistent I’ve been in my legal career from the very beginning until today and beyond!!

For 10 years, these are the values which have driven the growth and expansion of Transitions Legal. The values on which the firm was built and continues to thrive and grow.

When I named my law firm, I knew I was choosing a non-traditional moniker, but I was fine with it because it expresses exactly what we do. We help clients through the legal aspects of important life transitions.

That word transitions has been important to me because it espouses my view on divorce: neither good nor bad, just a transition from one phase of life to the next. I don’t judge my clients. I help them emerge strong and with a clear focus on what can lie ahead.

I am thrilled to be celebrating ten years in business. We have grown again and again in the past decade, moved offices to fill more space, welcomed new team members, expanded our affiliations and certifications, and I am excited about what comes next.

Thank you to all of our clients for taking a risk on a non-traditional firm. They knew from the start that we heard them, we saw them, we understood what they needed, and we were dedicated to supporting their transitions fully and completely.
