I am a Trial Lawyer who focuses on Criminal Defense, Immigration, and Personal Injury litigation. In my 18 years of legal experience, I have tried hundreds of cases before judges and juries. Before opening my own law practice, I was an Assistant Defender with the Defender Association of Philadelphia, an Associate at Rawle & Henderson, and served seven years as the Director of Trial Advocacy Programs at Villanova University School of Law. I continue to teach at Villanova as an Adjunct Trial Advocacy Professor and Head Coach of the law school’s award-winning National Trial Team. I regularly serve as an instructor for the National Institute for Trial Advocacy, where I teach other lawyers how to try cases. I have written and spoken on various topics in civil and criminal litigation, with a particular interest in Evidence Law.
