I zealously pursue the best interests of my clients in thier respective legal matters related to real property, including contracts disputes, misrepresentation, fraud, construction defects, and suits involving contractors, real estate agents, and brokers.  I am familiar with cases falling under consumer protection statues, and I have experience with condominium associations.  I offer a 30 minute initial consultation at no cost.  Please feel free to give me a call or leave a message to request a call back.  Thank you.

I think that one of the most important functions of any lawyer is to keep clients informed and aware of all developments in their cases.  I pride myself on being able to explain the most complicated legal concepts in a way that anyone can understand.  I return calls promptly and keep my clients informed of all developments in their cases.. I fight hard for all my clients.  Not all cases can be won, however, and not every defendant wants to fight the charges.  In those cases I believe that it is most important to get to know each client as an individual and to convey that understanding to the judge.  No one is defined by their worst acts.  I make sure to present a complete and well-rounded picture of the client so that the judge sees a complete human being and not just someone that made a bad choice.. I teach Evidence at American University Law School and am an instructor at the Harvard Law School trial advocacy workshop.. Outside of work I have a lot of cultural interests.  I am an avid theater-goer,  attend the ballet and concerts, watch sports, and spend a lot of time with my dog.

I have been practicing for over 15 years and have successfully prosecuted a number of noteworthy wage and hour, civil rights, consumer protection, and environmental contamination cases. Most of the cases that we take are class and collective actions in which a few claimants step forward to vindicate their own rights and the rights of many others. We take these cases solely on a contingency basis, and take great pride in gaining meaningful relief for people who may otherwise never get any. We have recovered tens of millions of dollars for claimants throughout our careers. We focus our practice on representing plaintiffs in class and collective actions for Wage and Hour Violations, Defective Products, Environmental Contamination, Civil Rights Violations, and Unfair and Deceptive Trade Practices.. If you believe you have a case, we are offer free consultations to evaluate your potential claims.
