About Kathy
Kathy Bloom has built a practice in Pennsylvania centered on resolving family disputes outside the courtroom. She is active in regional collaborative law circles and has taken on roles that shape how lawyers, mediators and families work together in separation and divorce. Her career blends practice, teaching and organizational leadership.
Bloom’s public roles include serving as an Amicable Ambassador for the Greater Philadelphia Region in 2022 for the Amicable Divorce Network. She taught as an adjunct professor in 2021 at Widener University Delaware School of Law, sharing practical perspectives on family law processes with law students. Those experiences sit alongside hands-on work as a mediator and parenting coordinator.
She holds certifications that reflect her practice interests. The Pennsylvania Bar Institute has certified her as a Parenting Coordinator. She is also a Collaborative Law Professional through the International Association of Collaborative Professionals. Those credentials inform the way she approaches parenting disputes, custody arrangements and post-separation planning.
Bloom is active in professional organizations. She serves on the executive board of the Collaborative Law Professionals of Southeastern Pennsylvania as Secretary. She chairs the Montgomery Bar Association’s Collaborative Law Committee. She also maintains memberships in the Pennsylvania Bar Association and the International Association of Collaborative Professionals. Through the Center for Peaceful Resolution’s Lawyers with Heart program she works as a lawyer and mediator, taking part in community-oriented dispute resolution efforts.
Colleagues describe her work as grounded and process-oriented. She routinely prepares collaborative agreements, conducts parenting coordination sessions and mediates matters that touch on property division and support. Her approach emphasizes structured problem solving. She aims to help clients move from conflict toward practical arrangements that can be implemented by families and the courts if needed.
Outside formal roles she has contributed to local collaborative initiatives and worked on programs designed to increase access to nonadversarial family law options. She has spoken to professional audiences about the mechanics of parenting coordination and the ethical landscape of collaborative practice.
