I have been practicing law since 1984. During that time, I have come to the conclusion that the practice of law is as much about managing relationships as it is the pure application of the law. As a result, I have endeavored to provide legal representation to my clients from a Christian perspective, which promotes an atmosphere of trust, and results in lasting relationships with those clients.
