I am an experienced litigation and appellate attorney. I regularly serve as lead appellate counsel in cases before state and federal appellate courts in the Pacific Northwest, and have a track record of success. I am often hired to develop, brief and argue complex legal and procedural issues before state and federal courts. I am also an accomplished litigator and skilled negotiator, with particular experience litigating matters involving complex business transactions, accounting, finance, statutes, and regulatory schemes; cases involving free speech and other federal and state constitutional rights; actions involving professional duties; class actions; securities actions; shareholder disputes; derivative actions; trust and partnership disputes; and many others.
