After working as an Assistant Public Defender for 3 years following graduation from law school, I opened my own firm which has now been in existence for the past 26 years. I handle exclusively family law matters and criminal cases. I represent clients on all types of criminal charges, as well as divorces (both contested and uncontested), same sex divorces, paternity, child support, child custody, step-parent adoption, modifications, and guardianships.

Above all else, I believe in the Constitution and in a person's right to be represented by a capable lawyer during what may be one of his or her most difficult times in life. Whether you are facing criminal charges or an allegation of professional misconduct, I focus on finding a solution that meets your current needs while also protecting your future.. When charged with a crime or accused of professional misconduct, don't accept a plea offer or settlement agreement until you speak with a qualified attorney. I protect my clients by pursuing a resolution that will put them in the best possible position for their future. Many issues can be resolved amicably with the government's lawyers. However, if a hearing or trial is necessary, my experience and skill in the courtroom will put you in the best possible position to achieve your goals.
