Prior to practicing law, I was the Deputy Chief of a municipal police department as well as a police prosecutor. As a former law enforcement professional, I have a unique background that allows me to assess your criminal case from the perspective of the arresting agency and the prosecuting authority. I understand how they think and am an expert in police procedures. I can leverage that experience to help achieve the best outcome for you. I am also experienced in handling labor and employment law issues. As a former labor leader and then upper level manager, I have negotiated many contracts, labor disputes, wrongful termination claims and navigated other complex labor issues from both sides of the aisle. Most importantly, I care about the outcome of your case and will do my best for you. I spent 22 years in public service and carry that dedication to helping others into my law practice.
