I’ve been a litigator since 2009 and I’ve worked in a variety of practice areas, but always had a focus in employment law.  I love what I do.  Clients who come to us are often facing one of the most difficult, trying, emotional, and frustrating experiences of their lives.  Many have suffered under the stress of a bad workplace for years, sometimes decades.  It’s extraordinarily rewarding to assist people and to help them find solutions and a better path, both for themselves and their families.
