I'm a member of the Oregon State Bar, the Washington State Bar, and the National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (NACBA).
I'm a proud 3rd generation native Oregonian and attended both the University of Oregon for law school in Eugene, Oregon, and the University of Washington in Seattle to earn my undergraduate degree.
Practice areas
I represent individuals and businesses in Chapter 7 and 13 Bankruptcy in Oregon and Washington. I've been in practice since 1997.
25 years
Chapter 13 bankruptcy is a reorganization of debt. Chapter 13 has many solutions a Chapter 7 bankruptcy doesn't offer for example: allowing a person to get caught on past due mortgage payments, stripping off 2nd liens/mortgages, and paying priority tax debt by the IRS or the State.
25 years
Chapter 7 bankruptcy is a liquidation bankruptcy which allows a person to eliminate most or all of his/her debt. In most cases in Oregon and Washington, after application of exemptions that protect assets, around 95% of people will not have any assets taken by the Bankruptcy Trustee.
25 years
I help people settle their debts with their creditors through debt workouts.
