She understands the stress and uncertainty that often accompanies legal troubles, and she genuinely cares about the well-being, interests, and outcomes of the individuals she serves. Brigitte takes a client-centered approach, going above and beyond to delve into the unique needs and motivations of each client. Brigitte’s approach is characterized by her solution-oriented mindset. She thrives on analyzing complex legal issues and crafting innovative solutions tailored to her clients' specific needs.

With extensive courtroom experience, Brigitte relishes the opportunity to advocate for her clients in court, where her years of practice have honed her skills in litigation and defense. However, she recognizes that not all legal matters find their resolution within the courtroom’s confines. Many cases are best resolved through negotiation, mediation, or alternative dispute resolution methods. Brigitte adeptly guides her clients through both paths, often simultaneously, to achieve the most favorable solutions for each individual she represents.
