After 19 years of practicing, I have learned how to listen to my clients' needs and desires and have been able to give them a reasonable expectation of what can happen with their legal matters. We are always fair and reasonable in our dealings with opposing parties, however, we are fully equipped and ready to go to battle in Court for you if that becomes necessary. Too often people are ill-advised and unprepared in regards to their legal matters. Come see me before you try to go forward on your own, you will never get pushed off on a paralegal and we will always give you our honest assessment of your case.
Originally from NY, I have been in Florida since 2006 and have been helping the residents of Southwest Florida ever since. I love the area and will be here for your legal needs for years to come.
