An annual professional networking event in California is bringing together attorneys, therapists, and divorce specialists for a collaborative breakfast focused on the intersection of law and mental health in family disputes.
The Attorney–Therapist Breakfast, organized by Dr. Terry Heptinstall, will take place on Wednesday, June 17, 2026, from 8:00 AM to 9:30 AM at Mimi’s Café in Tustin, California. The event is designed to foster connections among attorneys, therapists, mediators, divorce financial professionals, and real estate specialists—professionals who frequently collaborate on high-conflict family cases.
Each attendee pays a $30 fee covering breakfast, coffee, juice, and networking opportunities. The event features guest speakers, including Dr. Jeanne Michele, a PhD-level expert in relationships, and Frank Garcia, a certified financial specialist with expertise in divorce strategies. Each speaker will present for approximately 20 minutes, followed by open networking.
The event is part of a recurring monthly series, with all meetings held at the same venue. The June edition is the latest in a structured program aimed at improving interdisciplinary collaboration in divorce and family law cases, where legal and psychological perspectives often overlap.
While the event is not open to the public and requires registration through Eventbrite, organizers emphasize its role in bridging gaps between legal and therapeutic professionals—a critical dynamic in cases involving custody disputes, asset division, and emotional trauma.
No refunds are offered for the event, and attendance is limited to those who register in advance. The breakfast format underscores its focus on practical, real-world collaboration rather than formal presentations.
This event reflects a broader trend in family law practice, where attorneys increasingly recognize the value of integrating mental health professionals into divorce proceedings to improve outcomes for clients.
