"As a trial attorney, I believe it is critical to understand fully my clients’ needs and why they have come to me for help. My extensive business background provides me with a unique insight into my clients’ legal concerns, which often assists in developing cogent, multi-level strategies for resolving complex and challenging issues. In the event that we cannot resolve a problem without litigation, I make every effort to involve my clients in the entire process. I find that by keeping my clients informed and included in every aspect of a lawsuit, and not just the trial itself, we are able to present the most compelling possible case in the courtroom." |
