Approach to Providing Unbundled Legal Services:

I recently started Waterview Law to provide clients with improved access to unbundled services for a more practical approach to dealing with their family matter. My approach to offering unbundled legal services is that the services provided can be customized to suit the individual needs of the client. Flat fees are offered for most legal services which can be broken down (unbundled) as much as the client would like in order to offer more manageable "pay-as-you-go" options, rather than being faced with large upfront retainer fees. Discounts are offered when bundling two or more services together.

Mediation: I do not have family mediation training. I have acted as counsel in 6 – 10 family mediations in the last five years.

Approach to Supporting Clients in Mediation:

My approach to offering unbundled legal services in regard to mediation can be entirely customized to suit the individual needs of the client. The various steps involved in preparing for mediation can be broken down and offered as unbundled services to offer the client more manageable "pay-as-you-go" options, rather than being faced with large upfront retainer fees.

Cultural Diversity Experience:

I have represented clients with many diverse cultural backgrounds and experiences. Clients have consistently found me to be extremely patient and helpful in assisting them to navigate their legal issues in often unfamiliar territory. I take the time to thoroughly answers any and all question clients may have until they feel comfortable with an issue, with the next steps or with the process and procedures generally.
