I have the knowledge to vigorously defend my clients in all types of criminal matters, ranging from minor traffic violations and misdemeanors to the most serious felony charges in Federal or State Court.


I understand the nature of the charges against you. My goal is to protect your rights, maintain your freedom and avoid a criminal conviction, jail time or an excessive fine.
