Firm Profile:
I have been told that I am a small lawyer

I have been told that I am a small lawyer, in a small firm, in a small town in a small state.  This was done to intimidate me, and it did not work.  Concord  New Hampshire may not be a Metropolis, but the clients who come to me are as important as any client in any city.  I represent individuals and businesses.  I have been practicing law in this state for over 20 years and have assisted thousands of people on multiple issues.  The focus of my practice is employment law.  However, my clients return: "Can you read my lease?" I have a cousin who is in the Military and needs helps." "You were so good with my case I need you to help me with my custody case." I have become more generalized and expanded my practice to include diverse areas such as custody disputes, equity matters, ownership of personal property, Military law, and business collections.  In addition I am very familiar and very successful in equity matters such as appeals, motions and restraining orders to list just a few.  I like my clients and am devoted to my practice of law.  To me employment law is not just discrimination it is wage and hour issues, compliance with hundreds of laws that regulate employers, it is assisting someone who has been terminated or should really find work elsewhere, it is a fascinating and complex area of practice.  I have no fear of political pressure and this assists me to take on difficult cases.

I have an excellent success ratio as measured by client satisfaction.  Overall, I make no promises other than to work as hard as I can.  I hope to keep your expectations reasonable in light of the law and to exceed your expectations whenever possible.  I work with the law, I learn the law and I use it to my clients' advantage.  There is nothing better than a good challenge! Give me a call to see if I fit your needs.
