Associate Attorney

Firm Overview

We joined the legal profession to add value to our community by resolving our clients’ legal problems in appropriate ways. We take a very hands-on, collaborative approach to every case. We know that every case is different and that we would be doing our client a disservice if we were to apply a one-size-fits-all solution. We take full advantage of all available technology in order to provide our clients with the best possible representation.

We work closely with all of our clients to understand the issues they are facing and their expectations with regard to an outcome. We fully explain the law as it applies to our client’s case and present all available options. We help our clients understand the pros and cons of pursuing a particular course of action and make sure they have all the information you need in order to make the best decision for your situation.
