Since being admitted to the Arizona State Bar and the California State Bar in 2003, I have dedicated my entire legal career to the field of criminal defense and DUIs. I have participated in numerous legal seminars around the country specializing in the defense of accused impaired drivers.  I am trained in the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration DUI detection, as well as the standardized Field Sobriety tests and the Horizontal Gaze Nystagmus test.  I strive to provide quality legal representation and at the same time provide clients with the peace of mind knowing that they have a lawyer on their side.

Since admission to practice law, I have always been committed to defending the rights of the accused. This commitment began while I was serving as deputy defender in Mohave County. I then relocated to Flagstaff to focus on cases throughout the northern Arizona counties. Several years and snowstorms later I decided to give it a go in the warmer climate of southern Arizona. I am proud to call Tucson my home and I enjoy working with the people of southern Arizona.. I have extensive jury trial experience and have acquittals both felony, and misdemeanor courts throughout Arizona. I have specialized training in field sobriety test and the horizontal gaze nystagmus. I believe one of the most important rights the accused has is the right to trial. It is at trial that the state is held to the highest standard guilt beyond a reasonable doubt. Before anyone decides to give up this precious right, they need to be fully advised. In many cases, proving guilt beyond a reasonable doubt is difficult for the prosecution.
