Law Firm Overview

Taking care of your legal matters can be stressful and uncomfortable. Before making decisions you should thoroughly understand your options, ask questions, discuss alternatives and minimize your costs. We try to provide all the information you need to make the best decisions for you and your family. We help you make informed choices. If you hire me as your attorney, I will prepare and explain the appropriate legal documents, and keep you informed about the status of your case.

As an attorney with twenty-five years of experience, I am committed to providing quality legal services in an efficient and ethical manner. This means that my staff and I:

We keep our clients informed on the progress of their case. We will respond to your telephone calls promptly. We provide our clients with the personal attention that usually only can be obtained in a smaller law practice. I am the attorney who meets with you to discuss your legal problems and who represents your interests in court, if necessary.

Legal services can be expensive. We are sensitive to the costs of effective legal representation. We evaluate each client's case by comparing costs versus benefits. We try to accomplish our clients' goals within their budgets. Depending on the type of legal help you need, our fees may be hourly, a fixed fee, or a percentage contingent upon recovery.

For our clients involved in litigation, usually it is in their best interests to resolve their case through negotiation or mediation. Most cases settle out of court. Negotiation or mediation are constructive alternatives to costly court battles and give the client a prominent role in the outcome. We are committed to facilitating the informed, consensual, and affordable resolution of legal problems.

However, this does not mean that we avoid going to court to advocate for or to enforce your legal position. You can be assured that if a fair settlement cannot be reached, we will aggressively represent you at arbitration or trial.

If you want personal service from an attorney who is committed to helping you resolve your legal problems, please contact our office. We welcome the opportunity to serve your legal needs.
