About Tom
Biography
More than thirty seven years of legal experience focused on complex criminal law defense. Throughout my legal career, I have successfully handled a wide range of complex matters successfully defending persons accused of committing homicide crimes, white collar crimes, real estate fraud transactions, sex offenses, internet offenses, drug trafficking, driving under the influence cases and credit card fraud.
I enjoy traveling the world with my son and recently concluded an African Safari in Tanzania and a cruise to the Northern European Capitals. We are next embarking on a cruise to the Eastern European Capitals in 2014. At home, I enjoy gardening, biking, hiking, skiing, reading and attending Los Angeles Dodger games with my son.

Experience
Professional misconduct
This lawyer was disciplined by a state licensing authority in 1992.
Public reproval with/duties issued in CA, 1992
updated on 02/28/2011A censure or reprimand issued by the Supreme Court or the State Bar Court that is not a matter of public record unless imposed after the initiation of formal disciplinary proceedings. No period of suspension is imposed. The reproval may be imposed with duties or conditions.
Tom’s comment:
“I was disciplined by the California State Bar in 1992 because I paid a referral fee to another attorney for referring a case. California State Bar rules a person paying a referral fee must 1. Get client's consent in writing 2. State terms of the referral fee 3. Referral fee paid must be added to the client's fee. All of the above were complied with, except while the client consented verbally, it was not obtained in writing. It was clearly a technical and not substantive violation.”
