General Information
Overview
After decades of working with some of the most recognized firms and respected legal minds in the nation, and experiencing the challenges and fulfillment of building a firm from the ground up with great friends and partners, I’ve determined that the next phase of my career is forging a new path.
I’ve established this firm to offer my skills as a courtroom advocate and strategist with the freedom and flexibility of an independent resource.
Through this approach I am prepared to play any number of roles in supporting the colleagues and cases that I believe in, whether as:
- An active member of a trial team
- A key advisor in litigation
- An expert witness
- A mock trial participant
- Another capacity where my experience and judgment may be of value.
I will also consider serving as a mediator or arbitrator for complex cases with the consent of the litigants or as a court-appointed master.
