I am 1989 graduate of  the University of South Carolina Honors College, magna cum laude,and a 1993 graduate of the University of Chicago Law School. While in law school, I completed a clinical education program with a concentration in criminal law.  After graduation I began my career as an assistant public defender with the Cook County Public Defender s Office in Chicago. I have been a criminal lawyer, and only a criminal lawyer, ever since.. In 1996, I returned to New Orleans, establishing my professional career with the Orleans Parish Public Defender’s Office. In early 1998, I established NOLA Criminal Law, because I sensed there was a need for a lawyer like me – a lawyer who was willing to try to do things a little bit differently than most. What I mean is this: sometimes lawyers don’t make any sense. Sometimes clients feel like their lawyer doesn’t understand them or their problems. In criminal law especially, effective communication is HUGE. If your lawyer doesn’t understand your problem, your lawyer can’t help you solve it.. NOLA Criminal Law exists because I want to understand your problem. It exists because I am interested in being a lawyer without always having to act like a lawyer (I do, however, dress like a lawyer). I promise that I will act like a regular person, who happens also to be a good lawyer.. NOLA Criminal Law also exists because I want to help solve your problem. My goal is to provide a top-notch professional service to all of my clients, while still maintaining a level of personal dedication to each individual client. I promise that your criminal problem, whatever it is, will get the attention it deserves, and hopefully the result you expect.. NOLA Criminal Law also exists because it is my experience that when you have a criminal problem, you need a criminal lawyer. Over the course of my career, I have handled well over four thousand felony criminal cases, hundreds of DWI case, and countless misdemeanor and traffic cases. I promise you the fruits of that experience when I show up in court to handle your case..

UNRIVALED PASSION: I began my career as an attorney as a public defender. I started to really see a system that didn't care about people-- where the goal was clearing dockets, where all too often no one was interested in hearing the client's story and there wasn't an attorney demanding justice for that client. The whole system was about moving case files as if there weren’t human beings attached to them.. Determined to be the advocate for those clients, I spent years pushing back against this system that has accepted injustice for so long. My goal was to provide the advocacy, representation, and defense that every client deserves-- what I would want for the people we love. My goal and vow to my clients remains the same-- your voice will be heard, your story will be told, and your goals remain at the forefront of your representation.. I am a passionate trial attorney who cares about justice, who refuses to give into what the system wants me to do, who pushes back against it, and refuses to see lives as expendable. TRIAL EXPERIENCE: Your goals are at the forefront of my representation and your defense. You do not have to worry about an inexperienced lawyer should we have to go to trial and can feel confident with an attorney with every skill set at your disposal.. I have been trained by some of the best trial attorneys in the US. I was among a select few in the United States chosen to apply and accepted to a competitive trial attorney training program.. I am a defense attorney with trial experience. I am ready to go to trial and I take that seriously. You can be confident that I am a formidable opponent, ready, and able to use all the skills I have to defend you to the fullest.. HOW CAN I HELP: A serious offense demands a serious defense. No matter the criminal case, I can help by listening to the facts, uncovering new information and positioning you with the best defense possible. I have been defendMing clients every day for over three years.. If you’ve been arrested and charged with a crime, you’re likely frightened, confused and don’t know where to turn. Who will help fight the charges against you? Who will stand by your side throughout the investigation and the trial? Who has your best interests at heart?. I am a seasoned criminal defense attorney who understands that each alleged crime has a unique set of circumstances surrounding it, and I am committed to thoroughly investigating each and every facet of the case to build the best defense possible. I believe every person has the right to an aggressive defense to help protect their freedoms, liberties and keep their record clear. Whether you’ve been charged with drug crimes, DUI’s, assault, a misdemeanor or a felony, I will work hard to vigorously defend you throughout every stage of your case.
