Ann has been practicing family law in Central Pennsylvania since 1995. Her practice is focused on helping divorce clients who desire to move beyond the divorce and put their children’s needs first.
Ann is a dedicated and compassionate attorney who is committed to developing client awareness of alternative process options and assists them when seeking to terminate their marriage through litigation or a collaborative approach. Her collaborative divorce practice continues to grow as divorcing couples realize that there are alternatives to litigation. The collaborative process allows clients to resolve their divorce related issues with dignity and privacy.
For those with issues involving children, this settlement-focused approach offers the opportunity for successful co-parenting following separation. As a mother of two children, she is sensitive to child related issues at every developmental stage and has an analytical and practical approach to problem solving.
Prior to joining the firm, Ann chaired the family law group of a Harrisburg-based firm and was instrumental in establishing the Family Mediation and Collaborative Law Center.
