Biography
- Admitted to the Massachusetts Bar, the U.S. District Court for the District of Massachusetts, and the United States Supreme Court, I routinely practice before the Family and Probate Courts in all matters involving divorce, separation, and family law, and before the MCAD regarding employment discrimination issues.
- In 2007, I was recognized as the "Up and Coming Lawyer of the Year" by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly, and in 2010 and 2011 I was named and recognized as an "Outstanding Young Lawyer" and "Rising Star" in the legal profession by the trade publication "Super Lawyers."
- I am currently an Adjunct Professor of Law at the University of MAss. Law School, and was formerly an Adjunct at the Southern New England School of Law.

My divorce lawyer, and I referred him to others.
Very very happy with him. He handled my divorce. He knows his stuff, and didn't back down. Fair, honest, compassionate, understanding, and reasonable is how I would describe him! I have referred him to others, and everyone thanks me over and over again.
