Over the past fifteen years, I’ve won every DUI case I’ve set for trial, including cases that were dismissed on the first day of trial. I thoroughly review the evidence to uncover facts that can change the outcome in every case I handle. Depending on the evidence, negotiating for a reduction of the charges and more favorable sentencing could be the best strategy in your particular case. I offer free consultations and really good advice.

I handle professional license defense. The State of California oversees and regulates the licensing of a wide variety of professions. These professions include everything from doctors and nurses to acupuncturists and real estate agents.

If you’ve been injured in an accident due to someone else’s negligence, it’s important that you speak with a Personal Injury attorney as soon as possible. You may be feeling physically and financially overwhelmed, but understanding the process and where you stand may allow you to focus on what’s important - documenting your pain & suffering and doing everything you can to get better. My last case settled for $250,000. Let’s talk about your case first – it’s a free consultation.

The first jury trial I won was defending a client charged with battery on a police officer. The jury was only out 30 minutes and he was acquitted of all charges. I have a passion for defending clients who have been wrongly accused. But, since I began practicing law, sentencing has gotten so out of control. So, I stand up for my clients, even when their is some culpability, to give them a chance to keep their jobs and help them get their convictions reduced or expunged as quickly as possible.
