The commissioner is even handed and I am always happy to appear in front of her. Even when she rules against my clients, she is fair and explains her rulings. She cares deeply about justice and fairness an due process. She is an asset to the bench. She lets everyone have their say and even lets them go on perhaps a little too much, in my opinion. With children, she is entirely child-focused and uses the best interest standard as it ought to be used--as a guiding star. SHe is the most polite judicial officer I have ever appeared before and her composure on the bench and in the heat of sometimes heavy argument is admirable.
