Licensed in Florida since 1979, I am a lawyer representing and advising clients in the areas of criminal law, divorce, and family law. With 23 years of experience, our staff possesses high academic credentials, maintains strong community ties, and is committed to the pursuit of excellence. Our office strongly believes that communication is the key to maintaining a good attorney/client relationship. A legal case can be a challenging and confusing endeavor for those who are unfamiliar with the legal process. Our firm strives to keep our clients advised and involved in every step of their case. Clients' fear of the unknown is often eliminated by regular and honest communication regarding significant aspects of their case. Client communication and involvement is particularly important to the successful outcome of a legal case. It is our goal to empower our clients and not make them victims of "legalese" and the mysteries of the legal process. Knowledge is key to decisive action. Our dedication to quality, understanding of the law, trust, and respect are the foundations of our long-standing relationships with our clients and the community.
