What is your opinion regarding clients educating themselves on legal issues?

Education is important so my clients will know where they are going in the process.

Are you willing to review documents prepared by clients?

Yes.

Are you willing to coach clients who want to represent themselves?

I am unwilling to coach a client who wants to represent himself. As they say, "a lawyer who represents himself is representing a fool."

Why did you decide to be a lawyer?

I enjoy helping people.

What work experience and education helps you be a better lawyer?

I come from a blue collar, working class family. My grandparents were immigrants who never spoke English or drove a car and worked in a factory. I am very family oriented. I am a divorce lawyer, but not an advocate of divorce.

Why did you decide on your primary area of practice?

Because I enjoy helping people.

What do you like best about your career?

Helping people.

Tell us about your law firm:

Two paralegals who have been with me for over twelve years and one associate who has been with me for four years. My father is a title searcher and my wife and niece are receptionists.

What are your strengths and style?

My strength is my ability to listen.

Personal Interests:

I coach and sponsor little league teams and I am a crazy Boston Red Sox and Patriots fan.
