Independent and resourceful, I will provide you with better solutions leaving you with more money in your pocket and a greater appreciation of the legal process. For over 22 years as a Santa Barbara attorney I have served hundreds of clients providing a wide range of services from drafting estate plans with wills and trusts to effectively arguing family law, business, and real property cases before a judge. All legal tasks are approached with a cost benefit analysis and an attentive ear to my clients particular needs.

I have practiced law for 37 years and was a trial attorney from 1989 to 2019. I am now a full-time mediator. My experience in the court system leads me to believe that mediation is often a better alternative than court action.. By mediating early in the process, the parties can save a great deal in attorney’s fees, and be spared prolonged anguish and frustration. My goal is to help you resolve your legal disputes in the most cost-effective and satisfying way possible.. My philosophy:   Chances are your case will settle. Over 90% of them do. You might as well try before you and your money are exhausted.
