Senior splitting from your spouse? – Inquirer Spotlight

July 10, 2018

“We present alternatives to court, and people feel relief and empowered. We run the gamut of people. Some women come who are already litigating and have attorneys. But they feel like they don’t know what’s going on — which is shocking to me,” explains collaborative divorce specialist Jean Biesecker of Bala Cynwyd.
