I am dedicated to providing my clients with top quality legal advice and representation. I believe that trust is the foundation of a good client-lawyer relationship. I work hard to earn the trust that my clients place in me by understanding their diverse needs and responding to those needs with careful preparation and attention to detail. I work with my clients to help them find the most efficient and effective solutions to their legal problems whether it is through negotiation, mediation or litigation. I always ensure my advice is practical, yet innovative and that the work is performed on time and on budget.
