Family lawyers are some of the most trusted professionals in the legal world — not just for their technical expertise, but for their ability to guide clients through emotionally complex, high-stakes situations. That’s exactly why I’m excited to be joining a lineup of speakers at the Upcoming Family Law Conference this April at Sparkling Hill Resort.
This event is more than just a chance to catch up with peers or rack up CPD hours. It’s about sharpening the tools that make a difference in the day-to-day practice of law. Over two days, family law professionals will explore everything from emerging tech to evolving best practices — all designed to help you support your clients more effectively.
As someone who’s spent the last 20 years helping lawyers make sense of complex financial matters, I’ll be speaking on a topic that’s as challenging as it is essential: valuing private businesses during separation and divorce.
My session, Mastering the Art of Business Valuations, will break down what lawyers really need to understand when a private business is in the mix — especially when that business is part of a marital estate. We’ll talk about common pitfalls, valuation grey zones, and how to confidently interpret the numbers in front of you (even when opposing experts disagree).
I’ve prepared valuation reports for everything from high-net-worth divorces to mid-sized corporate restructuring. And one thing is clear: the ability to spot inconsistencies, understand valuation logic, and ask the right questions can change the entire trajectory of a case.
The Family Law Conference runs April 24–25, 2025, and offers not just practical insights, but a stunning setting to step back and refocus. Whether you’re attending for the sessions, the networking, or simply the chance to catch your breath, it’s a weekend worth marking on your calendar.
