Family Law

Mission and Values

I understand that when a client comes to a lawyer, it is because they need help – that is why my motto is “Solutions.” The reason I have enjoyed being a lawyer for the past 17 years is because I genuinely like to help people and provide solutions to their problems.  

I would also like to express my understanding of when a client comes to a lawyer, it relates to a very important, and sometimes tragic, matter in his/her life, and that I take very seriously. I believe that representing each client is an honor. I believe very strongly in providing practical and cost-effective solutions to clients’ problems. The most important thing for a client is to be comfortable with his/her lawyer. 

Someone should never choose a lawyer simply by looking in the phone book or on the internet or because they think the lawyer has a good ad. People should investigate the lawyer very carefully by asking others in the community, including other lawyers. I’ve worked very hard to establish a reputation as an excellent, honorable lawyer and that I would encourage people to ask others in the community about me. Finally, it has been my experience that people want a lawyer that has compassion as well as empathy for their situation and I bring these traits to every client that I represent. But most importantly experience!
