Throughout my time in law school in addition to working a full time job I raised two boys with my beautiful wife Robyn.  Although it was challenging they made the necessary sacrifices for me to complete that journey culminating in me graduating and taking the California State Bar Exam that July. Their love and support carried me through to passing the bar as well.. Since then I have practiced in the area of criminal law as a prosecutor and defense attorny and have gained valuable experience in communicating with prosecutors, judges and especially clients.  Even while a prosecutor and representing the People I made sure I treated defendants with respect and dignity as fellow human beings.  As a crminal defense attorney I make sure each client knows that their case is equally important as the next. I feel that it is important for an attorney to convey that to a client because while we may see scores of similar cases the client may be going through the process for the first time.  I tiell them that it's my job to show prosecutors that these are people behind the case files with careers, families or on their way to obtaining those things and to keep that in mind.  I have recently expanded my experience into the area of Family Law but the goal is the same:  giving a client the best of my knowledge and skill as an attorney.. Ultimately the feeling of getting a client the best possible out come for their case and helping getting their lives back on track is immensely gratifying.

Throughout my law career, I have found myself gravitating towards personal injury cases. I understand that people are hurt and injured due to the actions of others, and I believe it's my duty to help them get the compensation they deserve. I have taken on cases of those who have been injured due to the negligent acts of others. Whether it is a regular car accident, an uber accident, slip and fall, medical malpractice, dog bite, bus accident, assault and battery, or wrongful death, I strive to bring my clients the fairest settlement possible. I treat each and every one of my clients with the utmost respect and dignity. Many of my clients keep in touch with me even after their case is settled.. I believe I have a high rate of success winning cases for my clients due to my moral compass. Those who are responsible for accidents and injuries should be held responsible, and those who have been hurt must be cared for. The body and mind need time to recover and heal, and by eliminating many potential financial stresses, I can do my part to speed up the recuperation process. Because I believe in this cause, I make sure to work extra hard to use every tool I have to win a case. I will gladly assemble piles of evidence, call in the assistance of experts, enlist medical doctors and similar authorities for their opinions and testimonies, and more. Further, I care about the aftermath - I strive to get my clients to go to the best physicians and physical rehabilitation clinics and will always make sure they are healthy and safe while recovering.. An additional part of my success as an attorney is the strength of my team. My fellow attorneys share many of my philosophies and qualities, and together, we work diligently to win cases for causes we believe in, from personal injury lawsuits to worker’s compensation claims. As my law career continues to unfold in front of me, I look forward to the hundreds more cases I will be taking on, and I am glad that I will be able to bring fair settlements and ample payouts to many of those individuals.

There are two words that best sum up my mission as a lawyer: "Untiring Zeal." I specialize in civil trials and litigation in five broad practice areas: intellectual property; contracts & licensing; business torts; antitrust/trade regulation; and corporate-related lawsuits.  I handle matters in the software/hardware, entertainment, and consumer products industries.. Technology developers, Entertainment professionals, and entreprenuers do not like to put their futures into the hands of someone else, so generally they come to me when the problem they face is too intractable to handle themselves. They come to me for solutions. As a trial attorney, I don't simply resolve disputes for my clients, I help protect the things most valuable to them: the ability to develop new technologies; create wonderful film, music, or television shows, expand and re-invest in the business; hire new employees, acquire new equipment; maintain a sterling reputation; or distribute profits to the entrepreneurs and owners. I do that by defending against attacks on my clients' financial security and prosperity. Sometimes protecting those interests means going on the offensive by filing lawsuits, other times it means defending them. In either case the goal is the same: to resolve the dispute and obtain the best possible result for the client in the most efficient and cost effective manner. Litigation is not inexpensive, but I am mindful that my clients' financial resources would be more productive when invested in their businesses rather than on expensive legal proceedings. That awareness helps me design every stage of the litigation and to make every dollar spent achieve some goal that will move the case closer to resolution. I recognize that my clients are in a battle day-in-and-day-out with their competitors. That's why I do my work with Untiring Zeal--so they can focus on creating great products or delivering invaluable services. And they can rest assured knowing that their attorney cares enough about them and their business that he will put his heart, soul, mind, and strength into their case. Untiring Zeal. It's not a slogan, it's a way of life.
