I take great pride in making sure I place my client's interest before my own. This philosophy includes keeping a low profile. If I am always in the newspaper or on television in an attempt to get "face time" and publicity it means that you are getting publicity. In the area of criminal defense, the less publicity you get, the less damage you will receive to your reputation. Quiet, effective and discreet representation is my goal. My clients have appreciated this approach and it is my promise to represent you aggressively, discreetly and effectively.
