I have been an attorney for over 30 years. During my career, I have represented both plaintiffs and defendants in various employment, real estate and business disputes. I have had tremendous success in both jury trials and arbitrations. Because my firm is small, I can give each case the attention it deserves so that the client has the best chance of achieving victory at trial. I never forget that your case is the most important case to you. I also know that my clients do not want to be involved in litigation because it takes away time and resources that should be devoted to running and growing a business. That is why I provide my clients day-to-day advice to ensure their compliance with state and federal laws and to develop risk management programs. And if one of my clients is involved in litigation, I work diligently to resolve the case without compromising the client's interests and goals. Because my opponents know that I have the experience to win at trial, I can achieve excellent settlement results for my clients.I have extensive training and experience in negotiation and settlement techniques. Not only do I use these skills to help my clients, but I also act as a private mediator, helping others settle disputes. I mediate all types of cases including real estate disputes, business disputes and personal injury cases.Specialties: Labor and Employment Law including:• Wage, meal/rest break and overtime pay requirements • “Employee" vs. "independent contractor" classification • Discrimination and harassment• Hiring and firing • Promotions and demotions • Workplace safety and employee privacyBusiness Disputes including:• Breach of Contract • Fraud • Partnership Disputes • Misappropriation of Trade Secrets• Interference with Contract and Prospective Economic Advantage
