My philosophy and emphasis is a commitment to excellence, grounded in a superior work ethic and a dedication to meeting the needs of my clients in an efficient and cost effective manner.. Over the years I have been extensively involved in a variety of professional and civic organizations and positions of leadership  which I believe has also enhanced my ability to better serve and counsel my clients.

I work hard to help my clients, my family, and my community.

I take a client-centered approach to legal services. I know that the legal system can be confusing and complicated. I consider my client's legal goals and best interests to be the most important driving force for my practice.. I began my legal career as a litigation and bankruptcy paralegal in a Northeast Indiana law firm.  This experience provided me with knowledge of many areas of law, including bankruptcy, family law, criminal law, estate probate and planning, business law and litigation.  I made the decision to attend law school so that I could use expand my legal knowledge and use my skill as a paralegal to help more individuals with legal problems.

I enjoy working with businesses and business owners, not only because they often have unique problems that require creative solutions, but because many successful ones are passionate about what they do, and that passion is often contagious.  Being outside counsel to many different kinds of businesses has given me a great perspective on what works, what doesn't, and where the future of our economy and our country is headed.  The fact that these same daring entrepreneurs value and appreciate our counsel and advice just makes the opportunity to assist them that much more rewarding.

I consider it an honor and privilege to represent clients through the estate planning process. I will listen carefully to all of your concerns and planning goals, including spiritual desires. Working together, I am positive we can arrive at a result that accomplishes all aspects of your goals. I look forward to meeting with you soon.—Tim
