As a criminal attorney, I have the privilege of intersecting with people at the most vulnerable time of their life; with a world behind the actions that brought them to our meeting in the first place. It is here that I endeavor to hear their story, get their heart and gain their trust. Trust is essential to me as it is to the ones I help.. It is from that vantage point, I seek to represent my clients’ heart to the judge and the jury if this is a trial case. I ask myself, How do I translate their story into the language of the Judge? How to dress or present them appropriately? Something that distinguishes them but makes them healthy? These are some of the questions that I ask as I am considering the best way to present my case.. I work with a very skilled and competent team to ensure the best possible outcome. It is a role of mediation that I take very seriously and have had over four decades of experience in dealing with the intricacies of such situations and believe me, I am very astute in the process. Call me, and I will listen first with heart and then act with legal precision.
