My goal is to help clients achieve and optimize the results they desire. For individuals, this means a happy and meaningful life in retirement. For firms, it means timely, effective and respectful retirements, client transitions, and leadership succession for partners and executives. It also means better mentoring and sponsorship to develop, retain and advance legal talent.
My unique perspective and expertise allow me to offer clients customized advice based on a strong foundation of knowledge and experience in these areas. I also recognize the importance and value of innovation and creativity. So my approach emphasizes both best current practices and sensible, carefully considered innovations.
In addition to legal professionals, my clients include individuals and organizations in finance, accounting, health care, technology, academia, management consulting, government and business.

Ida was a strategic thinker and intentional about how women can be serious professionals and mothers long before it was fashionable. She was both pragmatic and progressive, about as difficult a balance as work and motherhood sometimes can be. Well grounded in both her career and her family, she was still available to younger women, like myself, coming into the legal profession. I found her an ideal mentor and model when I first began practice in San Francisco many years ago and I am delighted to find that her long experience and wisdom is now available to so many more women through her books, programs and consulting practice.
