About Douglas
Biography
I have always been a champion for those who need a good lawyer but are afraid of the big fim mystique. I have a been a lawyer since 2002. I started doing bankruptcy because I could help people in need. I started doing criminal law because I wanted to help people protect their rights. I see a lot of people get representation that I didn't feel that the lawyer did his best. I do not promise to win every case, but I do promise to do my best, work hard, and care. My goal is to get the best possible outcome for my clients.
Over the years I have gained an insight into how to help my clients. I love going to trial, but most cases never go to trial. It is about knowing when to to litigate and when to negotiate. A lot of my clients become long term friends. that is important to me building that kind of trust.

Trustworthy and honest
I have retained Doug on various cases. He has always given me good advice. Whether positive or negative outcomes he will be honest and tell you what to expect. His pricing is better than most. Doug is a good communicator and knows the court system very well.

Felt confident that someone was looking out for me
Doug handled my divorce. He thought of things I didn't think about (and neither did my ex's lawyer!) and explained the process so I felt confident. Appreciated that he's very ethical and non-judgmental, everything was done quickly and he's very easy to talk to. In such a stressful time, it's great to...
