I'm a Traffic Man. After more than 10 years focused on defending driving offenses from simple speeding tickets to more serious DUI, Reckless Driving, or Felony Eluding, Hit & Run, & Vehicular Assault, and advocating for clients injured in severe auto-accidents, my practice has evolved into a dynamic center for excellence.
My practice consistently delivers great results using a network of strong legal talent, research, technical proficiency, caring and certified legal clerks and a unique and proprietary model for the delivery of legal care services.
