People, clients and courts trust me because I do what I say, handle problems as they come in, listen critically and have a bulldog temperament well suited for communication, argument and litigation in the legal arena. With thousands of court appearances and recorded interviews under my belt in private practice, I know when and how to listen, question, speak and argue. Aside from my litigation background, as of 2018, I rank in the top 25 nationally in IBJJF jujitsu at my belt and weigh and find balance with training regularly. I practice law the same way I play sports: I engage in a thoughtful and unrelenting pursuit of the goal.
