How did your firm decide on the primary area of practice(s)?

It is an area of law where I feel I can best help people who need it and where my personal and legal experience provide a practical background.

What is your firm's point of view regarding clients educating themselves on legal issues?

The more educated people are, the better able they are to protect their rights. There is a lot of misinformation, however, and I enjoy helping people understand how to protect themselves.

Is your firm willing to review documents prepared by clients?

I work with my clients as a team and am happy to review anything that a client prepares.

Is your firm willing to coach clients who want to represent themselves?

I do so often.

My experiences have led me to specialize in personal injury, medical and legal malpractice, construction law, and contract claims, and family law —areas where I can continue to bring my knowledge and experience to bear helping others.

I listen. Each client has a story to tell, and though not all of what they relate about their case may be legally relevant, it's all important to how they feel and, ultimately, to how I approach their problem. Law is not a "one size fits all" craft. While the statutes may be well-defined, each person's situation is still relative and you need to hear the whole story if you want to fully represent your client.
