Biography
My practice is focused on dispute resolution. I utilize a client-first approach to address my client’s long-term and short-term goals. I have more than 10 years litigation experience having resolved many diverse types of disputes between businesses and individuals in Maine’s state and federal courts, including real estate disputes, property rights, contract law, bankruptcy, collections, creditor/debtor rights, personal injury, civil rights and family matters. My broad general practice and demonstrated versatility allow me to approach each case with an unusually broad and holistic perspective and to craft comprehensive solutions to the legal issues my clients face.
