Questions & Answers
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
Clients should look for a lawyer who has a good general reputation, who has a good work ethic, and wants to obtain good results for each client. A lawyer who has these qualities and integrity will be likely to produce the best results given the facts he or she has with which to work. I work to obtain good results in each case or project in which I become involved and put effort into doing that.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
In a free phone consultation I can provide guidance, legal fees, and discuss what the next steps are.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
In a free phone consultation I need basic facts including accurate contact information, the names of the people involved in the case or project, and the basic story behind the project.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
One fact that differentiates me from other lawyers in the territory in which I practice is that I am board certified in civil litigation.
