I will fight for you. I am not just a lawyer; I am a TRIAL LAWYER. I have been fighting and winning criminal and DUI law for the past 18+ years, with an emphasis on presenting a case to a jury in the most effective way possible. I began my carreer as a trial lawyer in law school where I was a member of the Southwestern University School of Law's ITAP trial competition team. As a member of the trial team, I competed and won national honors in competitions in LA, Atlanta, New York, San Diego, and Chicago. As soon as I graduated law school, I wasted no time to get in front of a jury. I have tried over a hundred cases at trial, from DUI to Special Circumstance Homicide. Outside of my work as a trial attorney, I enjoy spending time with my family and watching and practicing Mixed Martial Arts. I compete in both Boxing and Brazialian Jiu Jitsu.
