Consumers, and business
owners, will appreciate the litigation experience I bring to managing
their issues. I handle all types of civil litigation related to money
owed, and money owing. That includes bankruptcy. If you are in debt, or
if someone owes you money, you call me for help. Likewise, if you are facing foreclosure, and want to pursue the bank - I am your man.
I try to avoid
litigation, where possible, especially if the client has an on-going relationship with the
potential defendant. However, I am perfectly comfortable taking a matter to a jury, and have participated in a number
of trials, including before a jury.
I am willing to handle
business litigation matters on very short notice, particularly those
involving attachments or injunctions.
I also serve as a resource for start-up businesses, providing counseling surrounding incorporation, contracting, employee relationships, and basic intellectual property issues.
I started my practice after having attended the evening program at Suffolk University Law School. I worked all through school at several Boston area firms where I received terrific training. Working as a solo practitioner, I know I can provide tremendous value to my clients. It is in providing value that I take personal satisfaction from the practice of law.
Practice areas
I handle disputes related to real estate:mortgage foreclosure issues, partnership disputes, home contractor disputes, landlord tenant issues, problems between neighbors, Title V issues, and the like.
