WHITNEY SMITH, B.A., J.D.

Whitney is a talented negotiator with a reputation for resolving seemingly unresolvable files, including those with lengthy litigation histories, at minimal expense. She is passionate about utilizing alternative dispute resolution methods to achieve optimal family law outcomes, including mediation and Collaborative Family Law, with respect to which she is a trained collaborative lawyer.

Whitney’s experience dictates that clients are typically more content with negotiated outcomes that they themselves have helped to craft, which is why Whitney’s primary objective is to collaborate with her clients to create tailored, workable solutions to their family law issues. That said, there are some cases that demand judicial input and Whitney has extensive experience not only in discerning such cases but also in achieving optimal outcomes in court.
