I served in the Navy on active duty and in the Reserves for 20 years.  I am very interested in helping veterans realize the goal of starting a business or buying a franchise.  There are quite a few challenges a veteran may face in getting set up in a business, but I think it is a very viable option that veterans do not consider enough.  There are many issues, from forming the proper entity to financing to industry-specific regulations, that one must become aware of to be successful in launching a business.

I love the outdoors, exercising, playing tennis, golf, cooking, dancing, biking, and my hunting dogs.  Oh, and my family!  The cooking has made it difficult to exercise like I used to since I am now in the "Clydesdale Division" in my races.. I am also probably the only conservative consumer advocate in the country.  I just believe in the free market system.  If we permit businesses and corporations to cheat, without being punished by a jury or a court, then the fraud will continue. Success in business will be the result of being the best liar or cheat or who has the most power in Washington DC, rather than success being the result of providing the best service, or product,  or providing the product at the best price.

I concentrate my practice in the areas of personal injury, civil rights, and family law.  I have tried dozens of jury trials throughout Virginia and the District of Columbia, and have particular experience in cases of traumatic brain injury.  I have been frequently retained, or consulted by other law firms, to assist in traumatic brain injury cases, and given speaking engagements on the topic.  I have spoken and authored articles on various areas of the law, and appeared as a legal analyst on television.

In that capacity, I defended the District of Columbia and various government officials, including Mayor Anthony Williams and Chief of Police Charles Ramsey, in civil rights, habeas corpus, tort, and labor and employment matters. I earned my undergraduate degree in business from the College of William and Mary, and graduated cum laude from the George Mason University School of Law. While in law school, I was Managing Editor of the George Mason Law Review, and worked as a summer associate and third-year law clerk for the Washington, D.C. boutique firm of Stein, Mitchell & Mezines.
