Overview

About Stephen F. McDonough

My practice is restricted exclusively to divorce and family law. I offer professional mediation, collaborative divorce, and traditional court -based representation when other options are not appropriate.

I am committed to superior client service, and use technology to help lower the stress of my clients while providing efficient and creative solutions to family law problems.

I am the owner of The Divorce Collaborative LLC in Medway, MA. Prior to forming this practice, I was the founder and Managing Parter at a Norfolk, MA law firm and was also an Associate Attorney at the Rosen Law Firm in North Carolina.
