I recently left the Contra Costa County District Attorney's Office where I worked as a prosecutor for 25 years.  I have extensive jury trial experience in all areas of criminal law including murder, robbery, burglary, sexual assault, domestic violence, gang related crimes, drugs and driving under the influence.  For the last several years I served as a senior managment attorney supervising a branch office and more recently, the sexual asault and family violence prosecution teams.  As a former prosecutor, I have unique insight as to how prosecutors think and and how they value cases.  I know what defenses work and how to successfully use tthose defenses to help my clients accused of a crime.  I am ready to fight as hard for my clients as I did in my previous career.  I am well known in the legal community and enjoy an excellent reputation for being a highly skilled advocate.  I look forward to using my skills to help my clients with their legal problems here in Solano County and the greater Bay Area.. I live in the City of Vacaville with my wife and two girls.  We have lived in Solano County since the year 2000 and very much enjoy being a part of the Vacaville community.  I am an avid sports fan and enjoy playing one of my many guitars in my limited spare time.
