About Henry

My office is primarily dedicated to helping resolve family conflict. The cost of conflict - especially when children are involved - can be too high. For many, the customary retainer fee is a barrier to our legal system. I believe that everyone has a right to participate.  My mission is to help more people gain access to court with a professional advocate, while making the process as painless as possible.  I offer free consultations, and explain our affordable payment options. We offer unbundled pricing services so that our clients pay only for the service they need, without any surprise invoices.   My clients know the cost of their representation up front. My fee structure is designed to work for all families and parents for whom the well-being of their children is the number one priority.

Family conflict is one of life's most difficult situations. I know the human aspect of what they are undergoing.  My clients appreciate having an attorney that understands the emotional as well as the legal component of their conflict. My approach is this: to be of help. There is no better way to practice law.

Offering free consultation. Call today to learn more about my fee structure.
