I help businesses and professionals effectively avoid and resolve legal disputes.
Whether helping clients in litigation or working through a complex transaction, I provide practical advice in an effective and timely manner. My ultimate goal is to ensure that my clients are in a better position (economically and otherwise) at the end of the day, as compared to when they first met me.
My practice emphasizes complex litigation that involves construction law, business law, real estate law, commercial litigation, insurance law, and surety law. Among others, I represents business owners, property owners, developers, contractors, design professionals, appraisers, material suppliers, insurers and sureties.
In addition to handling numerous types of construction and commercial litigation (including lien claims, bond claims, contract disputes, design and defect claims, business tort claims and shareholder disputes), I also represent individuals and entities in various business and real estate matters. In addition to helping clients avoid and resolve disputes, I assist clients to negotiate and close commercial and real property transactions, help corporate clients to efficiently maintain and operate their businesses, and advise clients regarding various insurance matters.
Specialties: Complex litigation, focusing on business, real estate, construction and professional malpractice disputes; contract and tort law; legal solutions for businesses; corporate and real estate transactions.
