Based upon my personal experience, I can say without hesitation that he is one of the most thorough, hard working and diligent attorneys that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He cares about his clients very much and is particularly devoted to all issues pertaining to the well being of children. He works very hard to settle every case; but in the event that settlement is not possible, he is an excellent litigator and strong advocate for his client's in whatever forum the case may be presented. His research and writing skills are second to none. I highly recommend him for any family law matter of any nature."
