The financial services industry is a popular target for frivolous litigation. My job is to defend the interests of banks and other financial institutions in a variety of disputes in state and federal courts. In almost a decade of experience, I have helped our firm develop greater strengths in arbitration, which typically results in better outcomes for my clients at a lower cost. I believe I've earned the trust of my clients by showing my ability to solve their problems through the arbitration process, coupled with my strong track record of litigating issues in the courts as needed. My practice focuses most frequently on banking-operations litigation, disclosure violations, and disputes arising from the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act. I have focused on the challenges faced by financial services providers through my entire career.Outside work, I'm an avid cyclist. I enjoy long, weekend bike rides on my road bike, as well as the occasional off-road trek on my mountain bike. But I always make sure never to go so far off-road that my clients cannot reach me when they need me.
