Nobody really wins a divorce, no matter what the public may think. Christina’s guest today is Kim Ciesinkski, a divorce lawyer and owner of ADR Law in Garden City, New York. She fell in love with divorce law when she realized that she could sit down and help women find their voice. Though she does practice divorce law and is divorced herself, she will never sour on the idea of marriage. Just like everyone else, Kim is adjusting her personal and professional life with these rapidly changing times! In this episode, we talk about… Kim’s journey that led her to become a divorce lawyer with her own firm Taking a 10-year break from law and taking on non-profit work Lessons taught through custody battles and having children Approaching a high-conflict divorce as a mediator Getting back into law after a 10-year break Gender roles in divorce through the generations Adjusting the professional and home life to the ongoing pandemic Americans have an inherent need to not get left behind with work Focusing on settlement and mediation as opposed to trial What lies ahead in the future for ADR Law You either work to change the system or to avoid the system Don’t ever let fear stop you from doing anything Links to resources: Harvard Business Review Hofstra University Find out more about Kim on her website: Adrlawny.com Reach out via email or telephone: kmc@adrlawny.com 516-308-2922 Instagram.com/wakeupcallthepodcast Facebook.com/wakeupcallthepodcast Twitter.com/wakeupcallpod If you want to know more about me and sign up for my newsletter: www.ChristinaPrevite.com If you are a #FEMSQUIRE or female entrepreneur and you want to appear as a guest on Wake Up Call, let's talk!
