“I hope I never need to call you.”  I have heard that response many times throughout my career when introducing myself as a bankruptcy attorney. The unfortunate reality of our current economic times is that often people do. Many people today are facing financial challenges that they never expected to, and are afraid and unsure of where to turn for help. If you are in debt, being sued, losing your home, facing garnishments or repossessions, I am here to help you. With proper advice and representation you can solve your debt problems, save your home and other assets and get a fresh start to put you back on the road to financial freedom. “Stand up for your rights. Don’t give up the fight.” – Bob MarleyYour bank has an attorney, and you should too.  I have dedicated my life and professional career to helping you, the consumer.  Too often we read in the news about banks breaking laws to steamroll the consumer.  The little guy often feels helpless and lost when facing big banks, corporations and debt collectors.  I will fight to keep you in your home, save your assets, and make sure there is a level playing field. In my 16 years of experience as a bankruptcy attorney I have learned that most of my clients are good people that have fallen on hard times. Job loss, divorce, medical issues, or bad investments are the main reasons for bankruptcy.  None of us really plan for these things to happen, but they just do.  We can’t change the cards we are dealt, but we can change how we play the hand.   Planning your bankruptcy case takes the skill, knowledge and expertise that is unique to our law firm. Each case brings its own set of circumstances.  There is no “cookie cutter” bankruptcy.  I am sensitive to each clients’ needs and issues. We are a dedicated team of professionals who know how to navigate through complex Bankruptcy laws and the court system.  Your case is our priority.  I graduated from the Nova Southeastern University Shepard Broad Law School in 1997, after earning my undergraduate degree from Lehigh University in 1994. In 1997, I took my first law job as a bankruptcy attorney for one of the local Chapter 7 panel trustees, where I gained invaluable experience working on all phases of bankruptcy litigation.   Building on that experience, I entered private practice because I knew I wanted to represent the consumer.  I have the knowledge and experience to file any type of bankruptcy case, from the simplest to the most complex. I have successfully handled thousands of Chapter 7 and 13 cases, representing both individuals and businesses.  I provide personalized, compassionate and aggressive representation because I know that filing for bankruptcy can be one of the most difficult decisions you will ever make.  My goal is to provide you with cost effective and efficient legal services to obtain the best possible result in your bankruptcy case.  I will plan a strategy for your case to obtain the fresh start that you need.

You’ve heard the saying: “It takes one to know one.”  Well, when I began my legal career in Miami, I regularly represented Wall Street’s largest securities firms, in state and federal courts, in arbitration proceedings, and in regulatory inquiries and investigations. Whether in Ruden McClosky’s Securities Litigation Group or as Prudential Securities’ in-house counsel and First Vice President for the Southern Region headquarters, my focus for 13 years was on protecting the securities industry.. Then I switched sides.  Since 1997, when I returned to private practice, I have represented hundreds of retail and institutional investors across the country in claims ranging from under $100,000 to more than $100 million.  The vast majority of my arbitrations were resolved through confidential settlements.  Apparently, I work well on this side of the aisle.  I have an AV rating from Martindale-Hubbell—very high to preeminent.  That’s the directory’s highest rating.  I am also certified by the Supreme Court of Florida as a Circuit Court Mediator.. I regularly write for scholarly publications affiliated with various Bar Associations: The Florida Bar Journal, ActionLine (The Florida Bar Real Property, Probate and Trust Law section), The Nebraska Lawyer and the Prairie Barrister, (Nebraska Association of Trial Attorneys).. I have been admitted to practice law in Florida (October 1984), Nebraska (2006) and New York (2007).  I attended Brandeis University and received a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from Vassar College in New York, and a juris doctor degree in 1984 from Rutgers University, Camden, New Jersey.. I live in Davie, Florida, with my wife and two young sons.
