About

I have over 15 years experience as a General Practice attorney offering representation in Family, Civil, Criminal, and Municipal Court litigation, as well as real estate, including landlord/tenant matters. Before I was a lawyer, I was a Realtor. I have great practical experience in real estate transactions including landlord-tenant transactions. I take great pride in my creative and personal service to ordinary, everyday people who need legal assistance. I OFFER FLAT RATE DISCOUNTS AND A 10% MILITARY AND VETERAN DISCOUNT IN SELECT CASES Most average people don’t have a budget for legal services. When something comes up, it’s often a hardship to hire an attorney. I recognize that and try to help people in a way that they can afford.

Took time out to give different scenarios on how we can go about things. Didn’t rush me off the phone like 5-6 other attorneys did today.
