Criminal Defense 100%

Any and all criminal cases, from traffic to homicide to federal cases; I put a ton of time into my client's cases and make sure I do not get outworked by the opposition, ever! I also learn everything I can about my clients - something they might think is insignificant can be the key to winning over a prosecutor, judge or jury!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
