Law Firm Overview

I have been engaged in a general civil practice in Anne Arundel County, Maryland since 1975. I have developed a broad range of services based on the business needs of my client base. I closely network with other attorneys in the area, so that clients do not have to search for an attorney with a specialty which is outside my expertise.

I represent clients in every level of the state court system, the United States District Court and the United States Bankruptcy Court.

I am a pioneer in computerized legal research and internet legal research which enables me to provide cost effective services for my clients.

I maintain a quality relationship with my clients who have been continuously active and a source of referrals for many years. I focus on long-term representation and informing my clients of business approaches and contract provisions that provide years of conflict free operations.
