My Approach
Every case is personal to me. Whether a person has been in a relatively minor car accident or is experiencing the trauma from the wrongful death of a loved one, every case has the potential to turns a person’s life upside-down. Similarly, when a person is charged with a crime, no matter how big or small the allegations are, it can become a terrifying and life-changing experience.
The pain a person experiences after an accident is physical, emotional and financial. Because of this, I approach all of my cases with personal attention and a hands-on approach, working as a partner and advocate for my clients, serving in their best interest and helping them alleviate the pain they are experiencing to help them return to normal life as soon as possible.
In order to participate in their case, people need to understand what’s going on and what to expect. I communicate each step of the process, what is to be expected and what the next steps are.
Another big difference with my approach, and our approach as a firm, is when you hire us, you get our time. We meet face-to-face with our clients and give them access to our direct line so you can text or call with questions.
