About Kimberly
Biography
My belief is that people should neither suffer injustice nor be defined by their missteps. As a result, I strive to form relationships with my clients based on the mutual respect, honesty and trust that will allow us to effectively and confidently confront the challenges ahead.
I understand the personal toll that a criminal allegation can take on individuals and their families, so I treat my clients with the concern and respect they deserve while working diligently to protect their rights and interests. I consider all potential impacts to my clients and effectively pursue the best possible outcome in each of their cases.
My breadth of experience as a criminal defense attorney, my depth of knowledge of the law, my skill as a negotiator and a litigator, and my compassion for people caught up in the criminal justice system are the considerable strengths I bring to my representation of every client.
