Honestly this is the hardest thing to write on this entire profile  I hate to “toot my own horn” because, to me, it can come across as sounding like I’m full of myself.  I can assure you that isn’t the case.  Still you need to know a little bit about me and my background to be able to determine if I’m a good fit for you.. Well for starters out of the 88 people who graduated in my law school class, I was ranked number 2.  I also graduate summa cum laude (the highest honors your can earn).  I’m also a published author.  My article, A Guide for Tennessee Criminal Defense Attorneys in Capital Sentencing Hearings: Representing Clients who were Acutely Intoxicated During the Alleged Crime and Clients with a History of Addiction, was chosen to be included in the book Perspectives on Capital Punishment in America which was edited by Charles MacLean.. I guess that means I’m suppose to be pretty smart.  More importantly I think it reflects that I’m not afraid to work really hard to accomplish my goals. If you hire me to represent you, I’ll work with the exact same determination to assist you that elevated me to the very top of my law school class.. Some things in life you can only learn from experience regardless of your educational background.  Sometime wisdom only comes with age.  I’ve been around the block a few times and I have the grey hairs to prove it!  I’d like to think that my maturity gives me a unique perspective that can assist my clients in finding a more positive outcome for their situation.. For almost 20 I was a professional magician.  Yes, you read that right.  I have literally performed thousands of magic shows for resorts, amusement parks, and corporations around the globe.  I think it goes without saying that I am very comfortable speaking in front of people.. So why is that important for you?. Well, being able to stand up in front of judges and juries and argue for your client is a big part of what lawyers do.  I believe that my ability to be comfortable “standing and delivering” in front of judges went a long way towards my partner and I advancing to the quarter finals of the Charleston School of Law’s National Moot Court Competition.  Don’t you want a lawyer that is comfortable arguing your case, and isn’t afraid to speak in front of a judge or jury?  I believe my prior experience in the entertainment business is a very powerful asset that I’d like to put to work for you.. I also have a fourth degree black belt in American Karate and a second degree black belt in Shotokan Karate-Do.  In 1993 I was ranked among the top 20 light weight black belt fighters in the nation by the North American Sport Karate Association.  I think this demonstrates that 1) I’m not afraid of a fight, and 2) I’m not easily intimidated.  If you hire me to represent you, I promise that I will fight just as hard for you.  I won’t be intimidated by the prosecution.  I won’t be afraid to fight for every legal benefit to which you are entitled.  I won’t be afraid to go to trial.

If you're looking for a long-term solution to your war, and not simply looking to win a single battle, you've found your family law attorney.  My conflict resolution strategies get results.  Many people search for "aggressive" family law attorneys, not realizing that there is a better way.  I continute to be successful against even the most seasoned attorneys because my approach is "refreshing" to most judges. Gone are the days of attorneys duking it out in court like you see on television; and most attorneys' failure to recognize that simple fact helps me be successful for my clients.. I recognize that each situation is different and therefore, I work with clients to formulate a unique strategy for their case.  Looking toward long-term resolution for current issues and anticipating future issues also saves many clients money because many issues are dealt with simultaneously at one cost.. Having gone through divorce myself with two children, I understand the frustration of working with the other spouse/parent and how daunting the court process can be.  My personal experience makes me patient and eager to give each client individual attention.. Prior to being an attorney, I managed another law office for 7 years and worked part-time as a paralegal in that same office.  Before joining the legal field, I worked as an insurance claims representative for more than 10 years.  My extensive work history in both fields has given me valuable experience in conflict resolution and negotiation, and has taught me how to be aggressive in necessary situations.

I grew up in a small farming community in Oregon where neighbors knew and genuinely cared for each other and core values like honesty, integrity and hard work mattered.  I am as authentically comfortable in the company of a farmer as I am with a judge or legislator.. I believe that while it is important to be able to laugh at ourselves, and I often do, the legal fraternity is and should be a noble and honorable calling to serve.  Nelson Mandela, Gandhi and Abraham Lincoln all had at least one thing in common.  They were all lawyers.  The lawyer is the frontline defender of the Constitution and the rule of law.. I attended Brigham Young University-Idaho before serving a two-year LDS church mission to Auckland, New Zealand and the Cook Islands.  I later received my Bachelor of Art Psychology degree from the University of Oregon.  In 2003, I received my Juris Doctorate from prestigious Willamette University College of Law, which was founded in 1842, and is the oldest law school in the Western United States.  I am licensed to practice in the state of Utah.. Since 2003, I have worked in a general law practice, as a legislative lobbyist, and as an Administrative Law Judge.  My extensive work experience in the legal profession, unique skill set, expertise and knowledge of the law and court procedure, and familiarity with attorneys and judges in the state of Utah distinguishes me from most other legal practitioners in the state.. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and six children.  Our children attend schools in the Lehi community and are actively involved in band, cheer, gymnastics, tumbling, soccer, football, basketball, track and baseball..

I am most proud of helping those who need help enforcing their rights in family law or litigation matters. Some of my clients have been with me for several years and have had me represent them on multiple matters.  I appreciate their trust.. Some noteworthy cases in which I have been involved include:. - Complex, multi-million dollar divorce cases against some of the better-known divorce attorneys in the Bay Area.. - A delicate negotiation involving a high profile professional athlete in a federal case in which my client -- the other party, his business manager -- was very pleased with the outcome.. - Negotiation of a settlement with the California State Athletic Commission that protected a six-figure payout for my client -- without him losing a penny.. - Successfully opposed an appeal before the appellate court of a decision in my client's favor at the lower level concerning a multi-million dollar trust.  My client was thrilled that we protected the trial court decision we earned in our favor over multiple parties.. - Winning a several day restraining order trial on behalf of a battered woman against a well funded and highly positioned Silicon Valley executive.  Good legal research, preparation and argument can level an uneven playing field.  In the same case, I succeeded in obtaining a contempt ruling against the batterer following a second trial for failing to fully comply with the Court order.. - Winning a trial that enabled my single mother client to move out of Santa Clara County with the couple's baby despite the other side being better funded.. In litigation, I've defended other attorneys from legal malpractice claims.  I've further won a multi-day breach of contract trial that enabled my client to obtain a lien against his ex-wife post-divorce..
