Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your draft article because
 * it did not provide adequate independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that she meets the notability guidelines. It is now Wikipedia policy that biographical articles about living people must have independent verifiable references, as defined in the link, or they will be deleted. Sources that are not acceptable include those linked to the company, social media and other sites that can be self-edited, blogs, websites of unknown or non-reliable provenance, and sites that are just reporting what the company claims or interviewing her or her management. Although you had many references, the majority were associated with her or her company, and not one actually supported any facts about her, rather they were about the company or legal stuff.
 * It's difficult to see amongst all the spam what makes her notable as defined in the link above
 * it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic.
 * Examples of unsourced claims presented as fact include:  known for... With extensive experience... helps clients and communities see the bigger picture... decisions with full information... personal empowerment as clients journey through the transitions of life... &mdash;and that's just the opening para, not a single fact, just loaded opinions, like most of what follows.
 * there shouldn't be any url links in the article, only in the "References" or "External links" sections. that's particularly the case when they are spamlinks to her or the company.
 * "Transitions Legal’s Guiding Principles" are just pure spam for the company


 * "Memberships & Associations", even ignoring the multiple spamlinks, why do these make her notable?
 * Collaborative Family Law is a humane, team-oriented approach to the legal process of dissolving a marriage. This dignified approach to divorce involves lawyers and other professionals whose purpose is to guide a respectful and fluid process that avoids the need for court battles. &mdash;fact-free spam
 * "Honors & Awards" unsourced, and none are linked to Wikipedia articles, so probably not notable
 * Blogs, Media, irrelevant and non-notable, also highly selective, lots of praise, no criticism
 * External links &mdash; no social media please
 * Lists are not good style for article writing
 * You refer to her by her first name, and it seems probable that you have a conflict of interest when editing this article, and you must declare it. In particular, if you work directly or indirectly for her or her company, or otherwise are acting on its behalf, you are very strongly discouraged from attempting to write an article at all. If you are paid directly or indirectly by the company or person you are writing about, you are  required by the Wikimedia Terms of Use to disclose your employer, client and affiliation. You can post such a mandatory disclosure to your user page at User:. The template Paid can be used for this purpose – e.g. in the form:    . If you are being compensated, please provide the required disclosure. Note that editing with a COI is discouraged, but permitted as long as it is declared. Concealing a COI can lead to a block. Please do not edit further until you respond to this message.

It's clear that you have jumped into this without really looking at other biographies. See Pamela C. Rasmussen for an example. IF you think she is sufficiently notable, please look at some other biographies before you start writing. And please note that you must declare any COI as described above Jimfbleak - talk to me?  16:55, 16 December 2016 (UTC)
