I focus my litigation practice on criminal defense, employment law, and appeals.  My criminal practice includes cases in both state and federal courts.  I have represented clients charged with crimes such as murder; motor vehicle homicide; conspiracy; drug possession, distribution, and trafficking; weapons offenses; money laundering; visa fraud; assault and battery; sexual assault; incest; operating under the influence; disorderly conduct; and resisting arrest.. In my civil practice, I focus primarily on employment law, where I represent employees whose rights are being violated at work.  I fight for clients who are opposing unlawful employment practices, such as discrimination, sexual harassment, retaliation, wrongful discharge, and violations of other state and federal laws.  I also provide advice and counseling: I help employees address problems that arise in the workplace, I review contracts, and I negotiate separation or severance agreements.
