Questions & Answers

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

Last year we were able to obtain a $225,000.00 settlement for a young lady who was injured in a car accident. We also obtained several discharges for clients in Bankruptcy Court with a Chapter 7 bankruptcy filing. We also helped a client get his criminal case dismissed - although past results do not guarantee a similar outcome.

How did you build a successful practice?

It is easy, by always putting our client first. Having a client's best interest at heart is what matters. I strive to always do best by my clients.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

Availability and being able to communicate effectively. Many clients come to me and complain that their prior lawyer is not available and never returns phone calls. I answer my cell phone on Sundays if I have to which is why my clients love me.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?

I once had a man say ""I would've committed suicide after my wife's car accident if it wasn't for you being there not only as a lawyer, but as a son!"" This touched me forever and made me realize I was doing something right. I continue to care and fight for my clients day in and day out.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

I enjoying swimming, outdoor walks, jet skiing, dinners, and riding bikes.
