As I have advanced my career, I come to realize one thing- MOST of my clients are hard working people who simply used a little bad judgment on a particular day. Hence, my slogan- "Helping Good People in Bad Times."
I am committed to FIGHT for my clients. Good people should reap the benefit of their productive, law-abiding contributions to society, not branded a criminal for a rare lapse in judgment! Call me. Let's see if I can help you.
