Practice areas
I've handled thousands of criminal cases with the attitude that each client deserves the respect and attention I expect when I am negotiating with a prosecutor, arguing to a judge, or speaking to a jury.

DUI defense is becoming a specialized area of practice where your attorney, like me, must stay on top of the constant changes in the law.

I've found that in defending these complex cases, especially murder cases, I can expect to spend dozens, or even hundreds, of hours working on a case before I ever step into a courtroom with my client. I have developed strong professional relationsips with private investigators, DNA experts, ballistics specialists, and doctors who are available to offer their expertise when preparing the right defense for my clients.
