She has instructed thousands of lawyers and has been cited in a U.S. Supreme Court Writ of Certiorari as an expert in special education facilitation.

Over the past two decades, Julie has developed a streamlined approach to mediation that is uniquely facilitative and empathetic.

She works to understand both parties’ needs and assists in cutting through emotional baggage to help the parties settle their matter outside of the courtroom.

Her goal is to guide her clients towards a mutually beneficial separation arrangement that places the emotional health of the family first and foremost. She does this by arming couples with information and practical advice rather than prolonging the process for her billing benefit.

Julie has saved countless couples time, money, and drama, and she has earned the nickname “the closer” from her legal peers.

She is the mother of two human children and two furry ones. (The latter have been fired by two puppy trainers, but she still loves them.) Julie is an avid cook, loves food, and hates exercising but will work up a sweat on the trail if there’s a waterfall at the end!
