Areas of Law

Criminal Defence

If you’ve been accused of a crime, the most important thing to have is a committed, experienced lawyer on your side as soon as possible to guide you through our complex justice system. You don’t want to face a courtroom without the best possible defence strategy from the very start.

Appeals

There may have been errors of law or procedure made during your trial, whether in mid-trial rulings or the decision. Or there may be new evidence to present. It may also be that the law under which you were charged needs to be challenged to make change. I look at your case through a lens of experience and advise you is an appeal is possible.

Litigation

If you’re involved in a civil dispute, you need a qualified lawyer on your side to represent your best interests and protect your rights. As an experienced litigator, I manage all steps of the process for you, including the investigation, pleadings, discovery to pre-trial, trial, settlement, and, if necessary, the appeal.

I will fight for you by pursuing an acquittal through any ethical means possible. Take control of your future and contact me now.
