As a parent, I understand the importance of parental rights and the need to put the interests of the children first and foremost. When parents have other priorities and ignore their parental responsibilities, the children suffer. Abusive or neglectful parents should not be tolerated. The other parent, grandparents, aunts and uncles must step up and attempt to sever the biological parent's rights and adopt the children in those instances. If the extended family is unwilling or unavailable, foster parents may take the place of biological parents to provide the children with a safe, secure, loving and permanent home. I have litigated thousands of these cases, in most Arizona counties, as a private attorney and also as an Assistant Arizona Attorney General. While an AG, I was honored as the Litigator of the Year by my fellow attorneys representing Child Protective Services. I can help you too.. Not only have I battled opponents successfully across the State of Arizona. I have also defeated cancer. Radiation, strong medicine, skilled physicians and, most importantly, with God by my side, I have met my most serious challenge.. Let me see what I can do for you.
