    My focus is on meeting the client's objectives in the most cost-effective manner possible under the circumstances. Having run a small business before attending law school, I take pains not to lose the business objective of my commercial clients. I am aggressive when it makes sense to be so, but always professional. Most importantly I have developed keen judgment through a premier law school experience, a wonderful judicial clerkship, and 23 years of sophisticated commercial trial work.

Exceptional Beyond Belief Amazing Attorney
Andrew was not able to take my case because of cost and distance but nonetheless he was the most helpful attorney I have ever come across. Not only did he spend at least an hour speaking with me he informed me of specific areas I needed to make sure another attorney would handle as far as my breach of contract case. He was extremely knowledgeable, attentive to detail and even followed up with a couple recommendations for possible other attorneys I could call to handle my case. Truly you get what you pay for in experience,knowledge and dedication and it shows. Andrew will be the first I call for any future legal needs. Thanks for taking the time to speak with me and your guidance as far as my case so rare amongst attorneys nowadays. Sincerely Tanisha B

"In my 20 years of practice, I've come across very few lawyers that possess such credibility, competency, and trustworthiness. Drew knows his craft, he knows people, and he understands how to use the law effectively to help solve their problems. I've seen Drew in action countless times, and not only would I eagerly refer him to a friend or family member, I'd hire him for myself."
