My experience in the courtroom is something that you will want to have on your side if your are charged with a crime or an alcohol related traffic offense. People hire me for cases all over the State of Missouri because they know that I am willing to fight to get the the best results they can get.
I have handled a wide range of criminal cases in State and Federal courts in Missouri and other states. My experience has been in all types of criminal cases such as: murder, manslaughter, assault, domestic assault, drug manufacturing, transporting, traffiking, distirbution and possession, arson, burglary, theft, stealing, fraud and more.
I have successfully represented many people through the years who have been charged with alcohol related traffic offenses known as DUI or DWI.
I am recognized as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer by the National Trial Lawyers Association and have served on the Board of Governors of The Missouri Association of rial Attorneys.
