Having lived and been educated in the United States, Australia and Canada has offered Larissa an international perspective on the practice of law. Larissa takes pride in practicing with compassion and empathy to assist clients through what is often one of the most difficult times in their lives punctuated by emotional turmoil. When children are involved, she encourages the parties to always prioritize the best interests of the children. Through collaborative law and mediation training Larissa has learned the skills necessary to focus on helping clients achieve a resolution that is less time consuming and expensive than litigation. Where alternatives to litigation are not appropriate, she effectively advocates for her clients through the court process, helping them make their voices heard.

In her free time, Larissa enjoys cheering on her favourite College Football and Formula 1 teams, spending time with family, friends, and her rescue cat Roo.
