I was adopted at the age of eleven days by a wonderful couple in Chicago who later added a brother to my family. My dad was a civil engineer and my mom owned a bookstore later in life. They were married over 59 years when my mom died.
I married and divorced two very nice men. They were physically different people but otherwise exactly the same. I’m a slow learner. I decided that I would not make the same choice a third time so I’ve been single since 1978.
My daughter is married to a Nebraska farmer and has three gorgeous and goofy kids, all of whom I adore. She actually works for me from her home on the farm.
I have always been a strong, independent woman who’s not very concerned about what other people will say. For example, in 1972 in Iowa, I gave custody of my four-year-old daughter to her father because I thought he was the better parent at the time. I was right – he was! She’s grown now and is grateful for the choice I made back then.
The idea of helping people is not a new one for me. I have a bachelor’s degree in Social Work, a Master’s degree in counseling, as well as my law degree. I was in my forties when I finished law school and hung up my shingle. Prior to that, I worked at a law school. Before that, I directed an educational program for low-income high school kids. Housing 90 teens in a co-ed dorm for six weeks will definitely keep you on your toes! Before that job, I spent a year at the top of the Swiss Alps at a private boarding school. Great scenery!
I love practicing law! I love helping people set realistic goals. I love helping them choose a path that leads to their goal, even if they need a few nudges along the way. I love making a difference – in the lives of my clients and in the lives of their children. Sometimes I love making a difference in the lives of my opposing parties, though I doubt that they value it in the same way! I love the challenge of testing my skills against other lawyers, both in and out of the courtroom. I love wearing jeans in my office.
