Linda L. Piff, Esquire is the founding partner of the Piff Law Firm. Linda’s practice focuses on Collaborative Divorce, Mediation, Matrimonial Agreements and Uncontested Divorce.

Linda’s goal is to have her clients exit the divorce process with the legal, personal, emotional and financial resources of the entire family in line with the goals of the divorcing couple. By doing so, her clients are poised for future growth and security in these areas.

Restructuring a family can be very scary to everyone involved. Linda’s job is to educate clients about the process and help relieve uncertainty about the future.

“Divorce isn’t just about dividing up assets. Families are multi-dimensional. Divorce is about couples moving forward with their lives, and in order for that to happen, emotional, financial, personal and legal aspects must all be addressed.”
