Law Firm Overview

I have been a practicing attorney for over twenty years, working in the area of civil litigation. For more than nine years, I have maintained a solo practice, focusing primarily on business litigation, commercial collections and the enforcement of judgments.

I pursue civil claims for corporations, banks, investment groups, individuals and law firms. I also handle the defense against claims, commercial landlord-tenant disputes, enforcement of foreign judgments and claims for unfair and deceptive trade practices. For a number of clients, I manage litigation portfolios, serving as a liaison between the client and attorneys in various jurisdictions.

My experience litigating commercial contracts has enabled me to become an effective advisor in drafting and negotiating contracts. I have drafted sales and services agreements and related documents for a number of clients to be used as the templates for their transactions. I have also represented clients in lengthy contract negotiations in which a range of topics, such as confidentiality, employee benefits, and insurance are implicated.

My clients are diverse: public relations firms, software developers, contractors, advertising agencies, a worldwide distributor of perfumes, etc.

My office is in Newton, MA, and I cover adjacent counties, including Middlesex, Suffolk, Norfolk, and Worcester.

I work either on a contingent fee basis of up to 33%, or on an hourly basis, depending on the case or project at hand.
