As an experienced trial attorney, Jane knows the value-both financial and emotional-in avoiding litigation when possible, and she will seek resolution through settlement from the outset. Jane believes that for legal solutions to be effective, clear communication is imperative, and the parties involved must take ownership of their role in the case. She not only educates her clients about the law behind divorce and other family law disputes, but she also tailors legal solutions based on the personal needs of each client. Each parent or family member will feel empowered by the knowledge of their rights, roles, and responsibilities. Jane also volunteers her time as a Judge Pro Tem for the San Diego Superior Courts as a Family Law Settlement Judge and was awarded the LEADership San Diego award from 10 News for her work delivering Christmas stockings to San Diego’s homeless each year. She is admitted to the State Bar of California and the U.S. District Court in the Southern District of California.
