As an overarching rule, if the client is not identified by a proper name, do not include it. When pulling clients from lists of representative matters/experience and news articles, include clients which are named and which are implied to be represented by this attorney, their team or firm, and exclude parties adverse to such clients, opposing such clients, or on the other side of a case, deal or transaction from such clients.

If a litigation case is listed, do not assume that the lawyer represented the plaintiff. Use context or other language in the text to determine which party was represented by the attorney. If a matter lists the government as one party, assume the attorney represented the other named party and include that party if it is specifically named and not anonymous. As another example, if the representative matter/experience is a litigation case, and it is written that the attorney represented the defense (or \"defended\" his client), extract the defendant named in the case title.

\n
Ms. Staroschuck has litigated many child custody proceedings both addressing complex custodial issues as well as addressing relocation issues. For the past two decades she has also litigated countless economic claims in the family law section of the Court of Common Pleas to include such matters as child support, spousal support, alimony pendente lite claims, and also complex equitable distribution cases which include not only distribution of various marital assets but also include the distribution of partnership and business interests of the litigations.

She was recently interviewed by a local television reporter for CBS where the reporter interviewed not only Ms. Staroschuck but also the parties and her counterpart counsel. It was the hope of all that, based upon this interview, more potential litigants would become informed about the options available to them in addition to the traditional litigation option. She continues to speak with numerous organizations about the option of collaboration such as leaders within the community at large, within the legal community, within various religious communities, and to individuals as well.
