Business Law

I prefer representing small companies, start-up companies, and companies that have occasional needs and issues but do not require a full-time lawyer. I also enjoy working with individuals with business issues and clients forming one or more business entities.

Real Estate Law

Property investors, clients with leasing issues, clients negotiating real estate transactions, and individuals involved in real estate disputes or who need assistance with real estate litigation.

Employment Law

Small employers with employment issues, individuals negotiating employment contracts or severance packages, and new companies seeking to establish employment policies and procedures.

The firm was established in February 2006. However, I have 16 years of experience and significant expertise as a litigator in business law at two large, well-established firms. I have handled a large number of complicated cases and legal transactions and have acted as general counsel to several businesses and professional clients. I have dedicated myself to professionally and efficiently representing my business and personal clients and to providing the highest level of service to my clients. I handle legal matters involving businesses, real estate companies, building contractors, homeowners, investors, professionals and individual clients with legal needs.

In 1990, before passing the Bar exam on the first attempt, I accepted a position with a large Los Angeles firm and relocated to Los Angeles. Thereafter, I gained significant expertise as a litigator and in business law at two large, well-established firms.

I serve on the Development Committee of my son's school, I am a fraternal organization officer, a member of the Rotary Club and am involved in charity. I also recently served on the Board of my Homeowners' Association. Finally, I am on the Board of SOS Nigeria, a federally recognized 501(c)(3) charity, for which I handled all of the application paperwork.
