About Barbara

Barbara Suskind completed her undergraduate research at Antioch College (West), earning a B.A. in Social Welfare in 1972. She went on to law program at Golden Gate University School of Law, the place she received her J.D. in 1982. Those educational years framed a pass into the California legal network. The development from social welfare to regulation is evident in the topics she pursued and the timing of her professional start. She finished law school the identical year she gained admission to the bar.

She used to be licensed to practice in California in 1982 and keeps a lively license. Since that time she has practiced law within the state and developed a tradition that consists of each advocacy and alternative dispute decision. She established the Mediation/Law Offices of Barbara Suskind and conducts her work through that workplace. The practice name reflects two strands of her work: traditional family law representation and the facilitation of mediated resolutions.

Her credentials consist of a Family Law certification in Contra Costa from the California State Bar. That certification marks a sustained engagement with household regulation matters in the county and the encompassing region. Over the years her professional things to do have covered court work as well as mediation periods aimed at resolving disputes outside of trial. Her strategy in practice leans on procedural information and the use of facilitated negotiation as a tool to reduce time and expense for clients whilst addressing household-related legal issues.

Today she continues to practice in California, serving clients through the Mediation/Law Offices of Barbara Suskind. She stays an active state bar member and carries the experience of decades of practice into every case she handles. Her work combines representation in household regulation matters with facilitated negotiation services provided through her workplace. She presently practices family regulation and facilitated negotiation in California.
