My goal is to bring you the best service possible. I will work with you to assess your situation and give you options so that you can make an informed choice on how you want to best move forward. While no lawyer can ever guarantee a result, I am able to resolve most issues without trial, and many with a phone call or letter. Those times I have gone to trial, I have usually prevailed. I have achieved favorable results in fields including but not limited to family law, including divorce, parenting and custody, criminal law, consumer law and credit repair.

He gave me direction to other attorneys who could help me, since he no longer practiced in the county where I need representation.
