For two years I worked tirelessly on the most serious DUI cases, ranging from first offense DUI's to vehicular manslaughter and DUI murder. Since January of 2018 I have opened my own practice so that I can better cater to my clients on their terms. I am trial tested across a range of cases. As parft of my commitment to clients I don't believe in screening calls, or making clients speak to assistants and receptionists.

I never have another attorney handle my cases.. I do not charge for a consultation. Call me and let's start planning your defense.
