While adept and experienced in contentious litigation advocacy and court hearings and trials, Brandi prefers to work with her clients to find alternative resolutions to divorce and family law issues.  Mediation can be an extremely useful tool in many family cases. This process allows parties to reach resolutions on their case outside of the courtroom, in a neutral environment. Many clients prefer mediation because it not only reduces legal costs, but can also aid in avoiding protracted and stressful litigation.Brandi’s goal is to partner with other professionals such as accountants, financial advisors, and mental health providers to help her clients achieve their goals in the least adversarial manner, whenever possible. This approach is especially beneficial in family law cases in which children are involved and both parties will be required to continue to communicate ongoing issues related to their minor children.
