I have also been active in the Tenth Circuit Court of Appeals and the Utah Appellate Courts..

He handled cases involving felonies, misdemeanors, juvenile court and competency hearings, taking a fair number of them to trial.. I have conducted hundreds of trails in my carrier, including cases where my clients have been accused of: Muder, RICO, White Collar, Fraud, Forgery, Possession and Ditribution of Controlled Substances, DUI, Child Abuse, Illegal Possession of Firearms, Bank Robbery, Aggravated Kidnaping, Aggravated Assault, and much more.. I like the challenge that comes with defendant someone accused of an offense.  I like to think of my clients as Federal Three-Percenters or State Five-Percenters.  Righly 97% of the people charged federally get convicted and face possible prision and only 3% go home.  Roughly 95% of the people charged in the state system get convicted and face possible prision and only 5% go home.  There is no guarnatee as to how any case will come out, but I fight hard to protect my clients and want every one of them to get the change to go home, be with their families and enjoy their life.

I seek  to collaborate with clients and remain in close contact as we undertake a project.  By working together, we can effectively identify issues and weigh possible solutions. I have found that when a client is fully informed and has an opportunity to consult with his or or her lawyer, some of the anxiety  that the legal system inspires dissipates and problems seem less overwhelming. I'm also a firm believer in the old adage that the only stupid question is the one left unasked.. My hobbies include hiking and backpacking with my wife, daughter, and two golden retrievers, collecting first edition books about the Southwest, and playing bluegrass music on the guitar and dobro.
