I have practiced in the areas of estate planning and elderlaw for over 28 years.  I handle some estate and trust related litigation matters.  I take a combined approach to estate planning - I am as concerned as much for what happens when a client lives (and hopefully lives well) as what happens when a client dies.  I work with a wide range of clients - some of whom are in need of Medicaid and VA benefits planning to assist with the payment of long term care costs, and some of whom have large estates which requires sophisticated estate tax savings techniques.   While I have been a part of the Kansas City community for my entire legal career, I am originally from Kirksville, Missouri.  I am a single adoptive parent whose son is now in college.  I am active in my church - Heartland Community Church in Olathe, Kansas.  In addition to being a member of several Estate Planning and Elderlaw related groups and Boards, I also serve as an Ambassador for Solace House, a grief counseling center in the Greater Kansas City area.

I have been practicing Traffic and Criminal Law for over 25 years.  I quickly established myself as an attorney that battles in a courtroom to ensure that my client's rights are preserved and protected. For DUI cases,  blood and breath tests require specific knowledge that not every attorney has, I have that knowledge.. I handle all levels of criminal and traffic litigation and enjoy in taking cases to trial. Our firm has a tremendous record in trial and often work out cases with great results for our clients just by having the prosecutor's know that we are willing to go to trial.   I take the time to get to know my clients and try to figure out what will actually work best for my client in the long run.  I realize that criminal matters can be tramatic and that is what I'm here for, to handle the legal component so that you can worry about your emotional concerns.
