About:

I am a former Hamilton County Assistant Prosecuting Attorney. I have experienced the legal system from the inside out. I have handled just about every type of case imaginable: felonious assault, gross sexual imposition, rape, robbery, burglary, OVI and on down the line to speeding tickets. As I transitioned into private practice, I realized that bad things happen to good people and that there is a little document known as the U.S. Constitution that affords these people the right to competent counsel, to a jury trial, and a litany of other enumerated rights which I saw from time to time being violated by law enforcement. Thus, I joined a law firm that was growing. We built the practice but we lost our identity. Who had I become and why I wondered as I looked out my 25th story window over the downtown buildings? This wasn’t my dream. It was time to leave. I had the experience of having tried over 140 cases. I had the knowledge acquired by handling 1000’s of cases during my career in both State and Federal court. I had the benefit of being on “both sides of the fence”. It was time to give up the posh office. It was time to have fewer clients. It was time to offer more reasonable rates by keeping overhead low. It was time to spend more time with each client….personal attention. It was time to get back to the grind and have my own firm. So, I leave you with this……I am efficient, diligent and relentless. I will aggressively advocate for you during every aspect of the case. I will never be outworked. And I believe, in the words of Vince Lomabrdi, “that any man’s finest hour, the greatest fulfillment of all that he holds dear, is that moment when he has worked his heart out in a good cause and lies exhausted on the field of battle-victorious.” View More ›
