About Thomas
Biography
I love being a lawyer. I enjoy practicing law. Advocacy is my passion. Empathy is both my greatest strength and weakness. My emotions are generally tempered by logic and I take an objective approach to assessing cases and advocating within them for the simple fact that I hate to lose. I hate to lose because I take every one of my cases home with me. I keep every one of my clients in my head, heart, and prayers. I have handled extremely complicated and contentious divorces, custody disputes, restraining order hearings, criminal matters, lawsuits, and bankruptcies. I have squared off against the biggest firms, banks, and the government, in an effort to bring balance to our system. I have won sometimes and have lost sometimes, but I have always done my best. That's the most I can and will ever promise, my best and nothing less. I do not always take the gentlest approach, but I get the job done.
