With 15 years of professional experience practicing law and three years as a senior business partner with a regional health care system, I have served clients ranging from sole business owners to businesses with more than 1500 employees. Regardless of the size of the business, all clients are served with a premium on responsiveness and attention to detail. The interests of clients always comes first.

In practicing with large and small law firms, an employer association, and as a lawyer in the public interest, I possess significant experience in employment and labor law as well as business, commercial and technology transactions. I perform sensitive workplace investigations and provide thorough fact-finding to employers so that they can implement prompt action to resolve workplace claims and disputes. My representation of employers in employment litigation and in defense of agency proceedings involving workplace discrimination, harassment, and wage and hour claims has earned favorable outcomes for public and private sector clients across many industries.  I conduct training and present legal updates for audiences numbering one to 300 attendees, comprising rank and file employees to C-level executives.  My transactional experience has included drafting and closing complex commercial transactions -- business acquisitions, commercial real property purchases and sales, business loans, commercial loans, commercial leases, and a diverse array of employment-related agreements -- and providing business, commmercial and in particular employment and labor law advice.  

Legal service is not a “one size fits all” proposition. What may be a good solution for one organization may not be ideal for another. Exceptional client service requires a solid understanding of the business and legal objectives for each client, so that a customized solution can be developed. Moreover, solutions need to be developed and presented in a timely manner, as often time is a critical factor.
