Biography
Compassion for my clients-Commitment to your goals-Advocacy for your cause.
I know that looking for a criminal defense attorney is stressful and facing criminal charges is scary. While this may be your first experience with the criminal justice system, I have spent the last twenty-four years handling criminal cases both as a prosecutor and a criminal defense lawyer. I have the experience you need. I have the reputation you want when walking into a courtroom. I know the system, I know the law, and most importantly I know how to come up with a plan to help you.
