I am one of the few attorneys I know who set out to be a Family Law Attorney when I went to law school.  I like assisting people in one of the most traumatic legal problems that they face, and enjoy the challenge of finding a resolution that works for them, and if there is not one, taking the case to trial.. I take a holistic view of my family law cases, and listen carefully to my clients needs and wants, and focus on what is reasonable.  I am always willing to listen to my clients before I make any suggestions, and I usually give my clients more than one option depending on how the scenario plays out with the other partner.. The Boy Scout Motto is "Be Prepared.", and that is why I listen to my clients, so I can prepare a case around their needs, and work towards a resolution that meets those needs.  Every client and case has its own distinct uniqueness, and each client is a person experiencing the no "Win" scenario of divorce.  I recognize this and treat each client as a person, not just another number.. I am an avid movie fan.  This helps me be quiet and observe, and soak in all of the details.  I am a supporter of the arts, and an active member of the Phoenix Art Museum.  I enjoy bicycling and hiking.  I do both at my own pace.  I also enjoy Yoga to refresh my body, mind and spirit.

I am a Partner in our firm’s family law department. My practice includes representing clients in divorce cases, paternity, and post-decree actions, as well as disputes involving spousal maintenance, child support, third-party rights, guardianship, and relocation, among others.. I joined Davis Miles as an Associate in January 2019 after spending several years prosecuting felony offenses with the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office.. When not praciting law I enjoy spending time with my wonderful wife and children. I passionately love the outdoors as well as the conservation of wildlife and their habitat.
