Meet The Team Of Lawyers and Professional Staff
Trusting lawyers to handle your divorce is never easy. We invite you to learn a little more about the firm and our personal backgrounds.
I have been in practice for more than 47 years, but was a mere 20 years old when I entered law school. I have been around long enough to have seen it all, but remain deeply passionate about this work. In addition to being there for my family law clients, I volunteer my time to teaching and educational programs at nonprofit organizations throughout Ontario, serving the needs of diverse communities. I also mentor several young lawyers.
In 2014, my daughter, Amanda Cohen, joined our busy office. Together, we have formed one of the first mother-daughter family law practices in Ontario, and our relationship allows us to work together in a team approach.
I, personally, am a trained mediator and collaborative lawyer and served as a dispute resolution officer (DRO) for the Newmarket/York Region Court for four-and-a-half years, until December 2014. My experience and credentials enable me to offer people what they need when they are considering divorce, or separation options, information, advice and representation.
I am a member of several lawyers’ associations, Toronto Lawyers’ Association; the York Region Lawyer’s Association; Family Lawyers Association, York Regional Collaborative Practice Group and the Advocate Society as well as the Association of Family and Conciliation Courts.
I am also devoted to my long-term spouse of 43 years and two adult daughters and son and daughter by marriage.
