Attorney Team
“Being from the Midwest, I’ve found that honesty, hard work, and proper planning lead to effective representation of my clients. Each family law case is unique and must be handled accordingly. Some clients want an attorney who will zealously represent them in court, while others just need someone to provide them with the legal knowledge and advice to bring their matter to a swift resolution. I am comfortable in both of these roles.”
