Having spent my entire career focused on Oregon criminal law and investigations and building my resume as a successful trial attorney, I am proud to use my unique skills and experience to the service of clients facing an array of criminal charges. As a former prosecutor in multiple Oregon jurisdictions, I understand how to level the balance of power between the state and the accused, and pride myself on my record of satisfied clients who have achieved successful outcomes in the face of fear and uncertainty. I firmly believe that when someone is faced with criminal accusations, they deserve exceptional and zealous representation from an attorney who inspires hope and confidence.
