I am presently retired and not accepting new clients. I love to help solve employment problems, think through complicated situations and identify effective, practical solutions.I provide my business clients (both the private and public sector) with counsel in all aspects local, state and federal law governing the employer-employee relationship.

At this point in my career, I believe that the best service I can provide to my clients is consultations designed to minimize exposure to employee lawsuits and protracted problems. It is my mission is to provide practical and proactive employment law consultations to help you develop and update employment policies, procedures and practices tailored to your industry, size, sector and location.I have strong analytical and problem-solving skills, including, interviewing, investigation, in-depth analysis, issue identification, research, and needs analysis.In the performance of my work I maintain the strictest levels of confidentiality, exercise of sound judgment and high ethical standards.My approach to problem solving is very straightforward. After learning about you and your organization I will ask clarifying questions, conduct research, and then begin to discuss the implications that various decisions may have for you and other stakeholders. The ultimate goal is to help you determine a critical path forward.On a personal note, I have a strong sense of intellectual curiosity; enjoy conducting research on a broad range of topics; a commitment to life-long learning; a vociferous reader; a lover of cinema; and, a "whole food plant based" enthusiast.
