I started my legal career as a public defender and fought hard for the rights and freedoms of my clients. However, an overwhelmed system made it difficult to give clients the personalized attention they deserved. Consequently, in 2013, I started my private practice to fight even harder for my clients. Since then, I have built a reputation of strong wins and always putting my clients first.
