I am a labor and employment law defense attorney in Tampa, Florida. I work with companies to advise them about laws that affect their relationships with employees, to solve problems that arise, and then to defend the company against EEOC charges or lawsuits filed by employees. I have practiced exclusively in the management labor and employment law field since 1994. I believe that it is in my best interest and my client's best interest for me to provide assessments of cases early on before incurring unnecessary fees. Based on that assessment, we can try to resolve problems early when necessary, while committing ourselves to a defense of the client's principles in all other situations. My clients have included Outback, Carrabba's, Bonefish Grill, Fleming's Prime Steakhouse, Metro Diner, Jason's Deli, Texas Roadhouse, Caspers Company, Epic Restaurant Group, the Florida Restaurant and Lodging Association, Beall's Stores, Beall's Outlets, BayCare HealthCare, Johns Hopkins HealthCare, Ascension Health Care, ShandsUF HealthCare, and many small to mid-size employers.I welcome the opportunity to talk to employers of all sizes about the underlying principles of employment law and the nuances that can make the difference in the defense of an employment decision.Specialties: Board Certified in Labor and Employment Law by The Florida Bar
