Hello my friend. If you or a loved one has been charged with a crime, you've come to the right attorney. I have nearly 20 years experience and have prosecuted, clerked for judges, and started my own law firm nearly 17 years ago. I have had the opportunity of arguing in front of nearly every court in the state, even the Supreme Court, and have won at all levels. Rather than snooze you with all my credentials like Law Review and publishing different articles, which has nothing to do with how I can make a difference on YOUR case, let me just say that I am eager to help you meet your objectives, whatever they may be. The number one compliment I get from clients is that I communicate well with them and keep them in the loop the entire time, so they know how their case is progressing and they know I care about them and their family. Give me a call and let's chat about what I can do to help you! Sean
