Helping You Cut Through The Drama During Divorce
When it comes to divorce, I understand how overwhelming and emotional this process can be. That’s why I, attorney Katherine Shlaudeman, have been committed to helping my clients achieve the best possible outcomes in the most efficient and cost-effective way possible. I believe that a collaborative and respectful atmosphere can lead to better results for my clients, their families and loved ones.
Having practiced law in California since 1997, I advocate for less contentious divorces because I have seen firsthand how this approach can significantly benefit all parties involved. I have helped my clients save time and emotional energy by choosing negotiation and mediation over lengthy court battles. This method promotes amicable resolutions. It fosters an environment where both parties can move forward with their lives more quickly and peacefully.
I have built my practice on the pillars of experience, honesty and a client-centric approach. I pride myself on my ability to cut through the drama and uncertainty often associated with legal processes. As your advocate, you can rely on me to provide clear, straightforward advice that empowers you to make informed decisions.
Designing Smart Strategies To Achieve
Effective Resolutions
Divorce proceedings are not only stressful but also costly. Legal fees can spiral when family law attorneys encourage a “win-at-all-costs” mentality, which often benefits legal counsel over clients. I do not endorse this approach. It is my goal to reduce the overall time spent on divorce proceedings, not prolong it. I strive to make this tenuous time in your life as stress-free as possible.
At Katherine Shlaudeman Law and Mediation Practice, you will find an attorney who focuses on your best interests rather than maximizing profits. I use decades of experience and my Master of Laws in taxation to craft disciplined, innovative legal strategies.
I have the knowledge required to help you obtain a favorable property agreement, negotiate for your fair share of deferred compensation or retirement accounts, or achieve other goals required to secure your financial future. There’s a reason other family law attorneys refer their complex asset and debt division cases to me. I am intimately familiar with the intricacies associated with property division and divorce in California.
Allow me to put my substantial knowledge to work for you.
