Since joining the firm in 2006, I have handled a diverse array of cases, including intellectual property, tax controversies, business transactions, trust and estate disputes, and civil litigation.I have experience navigating complex trust and estate disputes involving issues such as undue influence, capacity, breach of fiduciary duty, financial elder abuse, contested accountings, trustee removal, beneficiary disputes, and probate. These cases often involve intricate family dynamics and can be particularly stressful. Coming from a large family myself, I understand how sibling rivalries and family dynamics can complicate legal disputes. I recognize that emotions can sometimes overshadow rational and economic decision-making, which is why it is crucial to have an attorney who can look beyond the legal issues to understand the underlying causes of animosity.I also advise individuals and businesses on all aspects of intellectual property including brand creation, trademark and copyright registration, protection of trade secrets, and management of domestic and global trademark portfolios. I have prosecuted matters before the United States Patent and Trademark Office, litigated matters before the Trademark Trials and Appeals Board, and successfully mediated international disputes. I make it a priority to get to know my clients and their industries, allowing me to tailor my approach to their specific needs. This personalized insight helps me identify additional areas where I can offer guidance, thereby minimizing the risk of future disputes and costly litigation. My goal is to provide legal support that aligns with my clients’ business objectives and personal goals, ensuring they have a trusted advisor to navigate their legal challenges.
