I've been praticing in the Atlanta area since 1985. My focus is real estate and commercial litigation. My client base includes small to medium sized banks and companies. I also represent a varied group of developers, builders, investors and entrepreneurs. I equally enjoy presiding over complex commercial real estate transactions and appearing in the courtroom, typically over matters involving contracts and leases. I have been married for 21 years and have 2 children. I enjoy golf, watching sports, especially SEC football, and spending time with family and friends.

I have over 10 years of experience as a trial lawyer representing clients in state and federal courts in a broad range of litigation, including commercial, construction, and real estate disputes.

I focus my practice on real estate closings and community association law, specifically homeowners associations, condominium associations, and commercial associations, including mixed use, "green", and age-restricted community documents.  I help homeowners, developers, lenders, and others in creating, interpreting, enforcing, and administering these documents, including compliance with the Georgia Condominium Act, the Georgia POA Act (particuarly in adopting its terms), and other statutes that may apply.  As well, I assist in navigating the practicalities of running an association, including dealing with calling annual meetings, holding elections, or creating comitteess.. In 2013, Andersen, Tate & Carr, P.C. named me the head of its residential and construction closing practice group.. In addition, I have also mediated real-estate related disputes, with an emphasis on finding cost effective and realistic solutions.
