I'm a 22-year lawyer, practicing in the areas of complex family law and civil litigation.  Most of my cases are high-conflict.  I am acutely aware that my job is not to make my clients' relationship with their (soon-to-be) ex worse.  Years after you forget my name, you'll have to deal with the person with whom you're fighting now.  I am a results-driven, solution-oriented lawyer.  My job is to work myself out of a job.  Each of my clients has my cell phone number.  I am never, ever, out-of-touch.  In addition to my practice, I'm an adjunct professor, teaching family law at Arizona Summit Law School.. I'm 47, originally from New York City, but lost the accent years ago.  I'm married with two teenaged boys.  In my spare time, I write fiction, articles, and collect pinball machines.

I was born and raised in the Midwest and still have a strong sense of loyalty to that area of the country.  I possess strong family values and place a lot of stock in forging long-lasting, personal relationships with my family, with friends, and with my past and current clients.  These things are important to me, which is why I gravitated toward this line of work in the first place, and which is why I have experienced success in what I do.  My passion is for helping families through a very difficult time and I know how important it is for everyone involved (especially the children) to get through the process as quickly, gracefully and respectfully as possible.  I never shy away from a challenge so I have focused my practice on representing individuals involved in high-conflict, high-asset family law situations.  I am extremely aggressive if I need to be, but at the same time, I understand that a swift and amicable resolution is often what is best for my clients.. When I am not working, I enjoy coaching, travelling, playing softball, and spending time with my beautiful and supportive wife Alex and my sons Dylan and Landon.  I also love watching college footbal.  O-H-.....
