I have practiced law in Frederick, County Maryland and surrounding jurisdictions for well over 30 years. I engage in the general practice of law. Significant portions of my practice are in family law (divorce and related areas) and criminal law.
I am comitted to providing clients with the highest leval of personalized attention, expertise, and professionalism. My goal is to provide, with integrity and respect, quality legal services in a client-centered environment.
My experience permits me to offer experienced, practical legal advise to help guide you through the legal system as you deal with your legal issues.
I have substantial trial, negotiation and mediation experience in a variety of civil (including divorce, custody, other family law issues, personal injury, and other civil cases) and criminal cases.
I have been in private practice since 1977, during which time I have tried cases in almost every jurisdiction in Maryland.
Though I have worked in both, I prefer my solo practice as it allows me to handle each case personally. Each case is unique, and personal service is important. I work hard to offer you realistic options about each situation as it is not always necessary to go to trial. When it is needed, I have the courtroom experience and skill to vigorously present your case both in trial and hearings.
