I've been representing citizens in the Metroplex for thirty-two years. I've developed many professional relationships throughout this time. I've worked on cases getting them no-billed, up to completely dismissed. I've had trials before judges and juries at the state and federal levels. You name the charge, and I have represented a client with the same, if not very similar, charge. I am well regarded by colleagues and clients as well in the community. I enjoy my career and look forward to the next challenge every day.
