As a land use / zoning attorney, I help municipalities and individuals understand land use laws and zoning regulations, both of which concern how you use your land (for businesses, homes, farms, factories, etc.). I primarily represent municipalities.

Litigation 25%

As a litigation attorney, I understand all of the ins and outs of the courtroom. I can also help you decide whether your case is appropriate for a lawsuit. I research the facts that caused the dispute, and analyze them to identify the appropriate law and how it applies. I also understand the process, procedures, and deadlines you must meet to keep your lawsuit on track.

As a municipal attorney, I focus on understanding the laws and regulations concerning townships, villages, cities, and municipal authorities. I primarily represent municipalities.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
