Overview
My practice is primarily based in general litigation, where I have focused on workers’ compensation disputes, as well as issues of employment law and health care law. I have also assisted in family law disputes, criminal law, and administrative law matters. I strive to achieve the best possible outcome for clients while also building lasting relationships.
