Kathy J. Bloom, Esq.

Kathy Bloom, the managing partner at Bloom Peters, LLC, focuses her practice in the areas of family law, transactional law and mediation. She is experienced in resolving high conflict divorce and custody issues, including alienation, as well as mutual consent divorces and amicable custody agreements. It is her belief that clients deserve respect, courtesy, and cooperation while dealing with life altering issues, such as divorce, custody, and support, or executing a will or power of attorney. While acting as a compassionate advocate, Ms. Bloom combines the unique ability to provide simple explanations of complex issues and strives to make the process as painless as possible. She understands the need to fight when it is necessary, negotiate when it is appropriate, and compromise when it is required.

Attorney Bloom is a collaboratively trained attorney who uses alternative methods of dispute resolution to keep parties out of court and help them resolve their issues in a constructive and productive manner. Similarly, she is trained in advanced methods of mediation and acts as a neutral mediator to help parties resolve their legal issues amicably.

Ms. Bloom is also a trained Parenting Coordinator, where she combines all of her legal skills and mediation skills with her Psychology training. Parenting coordination is used in highly contentious custody cases after a final custody order has been entered by the court. As a parenting coordinator, she works with both parents to hear each of their sides of the parenting issue at hand and then makes a determination to resolve the issue and submits it to the court for final approval.

Ms. Bloom is a founding member of Lawyers with Heart, a group of collaborative attorney-mediators who work together to help their clients resolve their issues peacefully and without court intervention. She previously served on the board of Collaborative Law Professionals of Southeastern Pennsylvania.
