Questions & Answers

Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

I feel like every case I work on makes a big difference to each client because we are dealing with their personal life, their families, or their freedom. It's not just about money when practicing family law and criminal law. These are cases that really matter to each and every client. And the outcome matters.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

Look for someone that you trust, and someone you have confidence in their abilities.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

You should always get a local lawyer for your case, someone who knows the court system, the Judges and how they rule in specific situations, and is familiar with opposing counsel. All of this information is crucial to your case.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?

My consultation fee is $400.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?

I work hard to get the best result for each and every client. I put in extra hours and take each case very seriously, and often get as invested emotionally as each client. My performance, and each outcome matters.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

I like to spend time with my family. I am married and have 2 children. We like to travel, watch and play sports, and watch movies.
