"I endorse this lawyer. He checks all the boxes for legal excellence, but that is just the beginning. He undertakes every case with a goal and a strategy to achieve that goal. He is not afraid to suggest a path with some risk in it, so long as the client buys in. Of the "7 Habits of Highly Effective People," he has 8 o fthem. In High Level Criminal Defense, DUI or License restoration, I refer to him without hesitation."
