About Thomas
Biography
I am passionate about reaching the best possible outcome for my clients. I take an upfront and honest approach, and try to build a strong rapport with divorcing clients to help them successfully move through a difficult time in their lives. I am sympathetic listener and I work to understand each client’s unique situation, while offering straightforward advice for achieving their goals.
Practicing in all areas of family law including child support, custody, and property division, I am both a litigator and a negotiator. While I excel at getting results for clients through settlement, I am prepared to fight diligently for clients in court when necessary. I am committed to helping clients reach the finish line, and utilize my expertise in setting realistic expectations in order to get there.
I am a graduate of College Misericordia, and received my law degree from the Widener University School of Law. As a former Senior Deputy Public Defender with the Dauphin County Public Defender’s Office, I litigated numerous felony cases before both judges and juries. In my practice of family law, I serve clients in York, Dauphin, Cumberland, Adams, and Perry counties.
