There are two values of practicing law that I have come to appreciate most: overcoming legal challenges and helping people. Over the course of my career in criminal law, I have effectively defended clients against violations of their constitutional rights, wrongful charges, and unjust punishments--in cases ranging from Murder to OUI.

I am first generation American, the daughter of an Italian immigrant who settled in New Jersey. We moved to Arizona when I was a teenager. I graduated from Chaparral High School and then returned to the east coast for college. I received my undergraduate degree from Wellesely College in 1995. After Massachusetts’ winters, I returned to Arizona where I became a Wildcat and received my Juris Doctor Degree from the University of Arizona in 1998.. Since I started my practice of law, I have always been on the defense side. I have never prosecuted anyone for any alleged crime. My entire legal career has been spent protecting people and their constitutional rights from government infringement and abuse. In my 22 years of practice, I have tried over 90 jury trials.  While I enjoy trying cases, I believe an attorney should get involved in a case as soon as possible to attempt to avoid prosecution or to try to minimize how a case is charged whenever possible. I have learned “to think outside the box.”. I realize that when a person is accused of or charged with a crime, the repercussions can be far more reaching than just what the Judge can do to them. I vow to be open and honest with my clients throughout the process and to analyze and treat every case as I would want the case to be handled if I were the person charged.

Since 1998, I have been representing citizens accused of crimes thoughout East Texas including Henderson, Van Zandt, Kaufman, Anderson, and Navarro Counties as well as the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. During this time, I have represented those citizens in both state and federal courts for misdemeanor and felony offenses both at trial and on appeal of criminal cases such as violent crimes, sexual offenses, drug offenses, and DWIs. I have a successful trial record and appeals record getting the results my clients wanted. I have earned the respect and admiration of my clients, their families, my colleagues, and the prosecutors I face daily in the courtroom. I have also earned the respect of the judges before whom I appear.. I recognize everyone's case is important and I handle their case just like I would want my case handled if I were in their shoes. I love what I do; I care about my clients and what happens to them; most importantly, I hate to lose. I am always more prepared than the government. I know the law. I know the facts. And I know how each applies to the other. I evaluate each case for its strengths and weaknesses and take the appropriate action. I prepare and investigate every case as if it is going to trial. I look for defenses and issues that help the client's case. I have the reputation for attention to detail and a thoroughness applied to every case. I do what it takes to help my client.
