Personal Commitment:
I grew up in a very poor neighborhood, where my friends and their families were constantly harassed by law enforcement.  I knew that this was wrong, but was unsure of how or if I could help.  As I attended college, I discovered that I excelled in the classes that focused on the law.  I attended law school with the sole goal of being a criminal defense attorney. After years of public service as a public defender. I opened my own law firm so that I could provide my clients with the very best legal representation without the limitations endemic of a case load that is too high. If you are looking for an attorney who can handle a tough case, give me a call.  I love the challenge of trial and the joy of helping clients win their cases.
