Whether the issue is procedurally arduous or substantively complicated, understanding my clients' business, learning their problems and helping navigate them is what motivates me. Innovation, resourcefulness, and deep substantive expertise can solve disputes more efficiently and with better outcomes than rote application of traditional methods. When you know how to do things by the book, you can recognize opportunities to chart a different course. I serve fortune 500 companies in a wide range of industries including manufacturing, energy, healthcare, retail, and others. My practice is focused on solving complex issues. I pride myself on being available and responsive to my clients and business partners. I advance the interests of businesses and individuals in state courts, federal courts, administrative tribunals, and appeals courts. I also serve as outside general counsel for several clients, including assisting with business transactions, mergers, corporate work, and navigating employment and regulatory issues. I have tried hundreds of cases, successfully argued numerous appeals, first chaired large class actions, closed multi-million dollar real estate transactions, and represent several non-profits improving life in Appalachia pro bono.
