A Personal Word

Career highlights

Prior to opening private practice in 2009, I worked as a Public Defender for four years, and at a private law firm that specialized in DUI defense for two years.

I am a trial attorney and have litigated in theneighborhood of 100 jury trials and several hundred bench trials.

Although it is important to stress that every case is unique and that past verdicts should not be considered as an indicator for future results, I am proud to say that my success ratio at trial is extremely high.

My law firm

As a former public defender, I know first hand how difficult it is to juggle a large case load and provide quality representation.

My firm prides itself on maintaining a small case load. My two paralegals (one for family law, one for criminal law) are highly experienced. I manage all my cases personally.

We do not play like many firms where your case can be shuffled around through multiple people.

If you decide to hire me, I am going to be your lawyer and your primary contact person.

I read your emails and answer them personally (sometimes misspelled when I try to type on my phone!).

Reasonable fees

Criminal and family cases can be very costly. As I do a lot of the work myself and my law firm is not overstaffed: you don’t have to support large administrative costs.

We do little-to-no advertising. People hire me almost entirely because I have been recommended by a prior client or another attorney. I pass these savings along to my clients.

Before the law

Prior to practicing law, I ran a successful motorcycle export business and traveled the world on motorcycle. I still ride, just not as much as I would want to.

I am dedicated to the defense of my clients.
I make sure they get the best representation
possible, no matter what the circumstances.

A Track Record of Results

As mentioned above, it is important to underscore that every case is unique and past verdicts should not be considered as an indicator of future results.

We provide these case summaries for information purpose only.
It is important to our law firm that you gain a good understanding of the types of cases we defend: if you are considering hiring an attorney, you must make an informed decision about what you can expect from us.

Fees

Criminal Defense

For criminal cases I use a flat fee structure. I do work with everyone on payment plans and am flexible to make my representation work for working class people who still need effective representation.

Family Law

I use a combination of hourly fee structures, flat fee structures, payment plans, and hybrid fee structures to find the fee arrangement that will best fit your circumstances and the demands of your case.
