I am the proud father of three wonderful young men, two of whom are now in practice with me, and the youngest, who is a junior in high school, who have the best characteristics of their mother, who I have been married to for almost 30 years. I am an aggressive lawyer who vigorously defends the rights of those accused. I am relentless in pursuing truth and justice and believe that all people are entitled to the protections of the Constitution and the Laws that govern our way of life. I have been defending people for 21 years after starting as a deputy prosecutor. I have a diverse criminal practice but find particular challenge in successfully fighting Dui/Dwi cases throughout Indiana. We also are civil and criminal trial lawyers.
