I represent clients in a variety of matters and am dedicated to each client right from the initial consultation. During this consultation I gather information from my client so that I know how to effectively defend them. From there, I keep an open communication with my clients and even utilize a client management software so that my client can fully see what is going on in their case.

I have lived the immigration process and not many lawyers can say that. My first exposure to the complexities of US immigration law occurred when I was empoyed by the United Nations High Commission of Refugees in a refugee camp in Thailand. In the mid 90's the immigration laws changed drastically, penalyzing families in the camp who had already been approved to live in the US for engaging in certain, how can i say, illicit behaviors. Admissions were enough to disqualify families from being allowed to enter the US. This struck me as unfair and very unAmerican. It was during this period of time that i wanted to help those who were stuck in the immigration web.. My further contact with immigration law occurred some years later, again before i was an attorney when i petitioned for my wife for her residency in the United States.

I am an attorney admitted to practice in Ohio and California. I have experience working for clients large and small in civil matters in state and federal court across the country and criminal matters from traffic offense to serious felonies.. Prior to establishing my own practice I had the opportunity to intern at the Ohio 6th District Court of Appeals, work at the Toledo Public Defender’s Office and work for a former SEC enforcement lawyer and partner at a large business firm here in Cleveland.. I became an attorney because I wanted to help people. My goal is to help you navigate the potential minefield our tangled web of laws has created. I’ve always had a great deal of curiosity and enthusiasm for the law and there is nothing I enjoy more than helping my clients obtain their desired outcomes. I will leave no stone unturned in helping you get what you want and deserve.. Education. Affiliations
