I have approximately 20 years as a government contracts attorney who has handled most all aspects of government contracting and has translated law and regulations into successful business practices. I have handled matters in a wide diversity of forums, including various Circuit Courts of Appeals as well as the U.S. Supreme Court. I currently am licensed in a variety of courts throughout the Nation and have a current case in front of the U.S. Supreme Court. I am a Fellow of the American Bar Foundation, an Acritas Star, and recognized as the Top Five Percent of Government Contract Attorneys in the Nation. I taught law school as an adjunct law professor on government contracting at Seattle University School of Law’s Alaska Campus and was an adjunct master’s instructor on government contracting and the 8(a) Program at Alaska Pacific University. I am often involved in sensitive internal investigations and frequently interact with Government agencies and officials when a company faces a crisis. I represent clients in defending against federal investigations, including investigations/reports by the Office of the Inspector General, the Department of Justice, and the GAO. Despite having a national practice, as a born and raised Alaskan, I understand the unique challenges that may be faced by Alaska and Tribal companies as well as other businesses when it comes to Government Contracting on a national basis.Prior to starting my own firm, I was a partner at two international law firms as well as Vice President and General Counsel for a large corporation. My practice has continuously focused on government contracting law in conjunction with white collar defense for corporations in relation to government contracting.
