A fresh start…

I’m Kirsty Salvestro, and I created Flourish because I believe deeply in a better way to resolve family law issues. After more than 22 years working in family law litigation, guiding people through some of the hardest moments of their lives, I saw the toll that traditional, adversarial processes can take. I knew there had to be a kinder, more constructive approach—one that truly supports families as they move forward.

At Flourish, we work together through lawyer-led negotiation, mediation, collaborative practices, and coaching. These are more than just methods; they’re opportunities for healing and growth, allowing families to find solutions themselves, in a quicker and more cost-effective way than litigation. And most importantly, these approaches can help maintain respectful relationships even through separation.

As an accredited mediator and collaborative family lawyer, I’m here to guide and support you every step of the way, to help you find clarity and peace in a complex time. My passion lies in helping clients not only resolve disputes but thrive in their new chapter. There truly is a better way forward.

If you’re looking for a peaceful and positive approach to family law, I’d be honored to walk this path with you. Let’s work together to ensure that you and your family flourish.

Warmly,

Kirsty Salvestro
