I grew up all over Texas. My grandparents were ranchers in Presidio County and I spent most of the summers in my early youth on their ranch. I have personally experienced the impact of the legal system on families and children. Because of those experiences, I believe it is a vital part of my job as an attorney to listen and understand the impact of each case for each client. While I do not guarantee results, and no attorney can, I do pride myself on hard work, integrity, compassion and passionate representation.. I have been licensed since 2014 and have been practicing law in the Big Bend since that time. My personal background has led me to this profession and has sculpted my desire to help my clients through whatever legal problem they are facing.. Featured in Texas Monthly:.
