About Virgil
Biography
"Rebuilding Shattered Lives" is not just a motto; rather, it's the very reason that I keep my doors open.
By limiting my caseload to just a special few on which I myself then can work, I maintain that personal touch so important to a meaningful attorney-client relationship.
And, since travel to an attorney's office is just one more hassle that most people could do without, I travel to my clients for their convenience whenever possible.
