I was born in Chattanooga Tennessee and have been an attorney at law since 1990. Since then, I have gained significant Family, Criminal and Civil Law experience as I am admitted to all state courts in California as well as the federal district court of appeal.
We practice in all courthouses in the five counties of Los Angeles, Orange County, Riverside, San Bernardino, and San Diego but have also had cases in Martinez, Ventura County, Indio and El Centro. I recently traveled to Bakersfield for a successful Contempt defense.
More than 20 years, I have provided my volunteer services to the Long Beach Superior Court Family Law Mediation Program. In addition I founded the Legal Clinics at Rainbow Battered Women's Shelter in San Pedro, empowering women to get restraining orders; dissolutions, and to file Paternity actions so their children could be fed and clothed.
