Alice is an experienced Family Law attorney and is certified by the Supreme Court of Florida as a Family Court Mediator. She has an “AV” rating from Martindale-Hubbell, the highest professional level attainable based on her years of experience in Family Law and the endorsement by her colleagues in the areas of professional conduct, ethics and ability. She is licensed to practice law in Florida and Colorado, and has been admitted as a member of the Bar of the U.S. Supreme Court.

Alice was a gubernatorial appointee to the Judicial Nominating Commission for the Third District Court of Appeal of Florida from1995-2000. The prestigious nine-member Commission investigates and interviews judicial candidates for appointment to the Appellate Bench for Dade and Monroe Counties. She also served as a Dade County Civil Traffic Infraction Hearing Officer from January 1996 through March 1999.

She is a graduate of Barry University (B.S. 1983) and the University of Miami School of Law (J.D. 1986), and served as an Adjunct Professor at Florida International University in the Paralegal Studies program. Prior to practicing law, Alice spent 10 years as a legal secretary and Certified Legal Assistant.

Alice now considers herself to be a “recovering divorce lawyer” and remains an active member of the International Alliance of Holistic Lawyers. After 10 years of handling only divorce and child custody cases, she closed a successful law practice to follow her dream. She now finds it more rewarding to work with people and assist them in solving their own problems, thus enabling them to regain control and power over their own lives, without placing blame on anyone. Holistic law looks at the totality of the picture and the consequences of actions, and is a focus of what Alice speaks about in her lectures to groups about relationships and how to handle family cases in a positive fashion.
