Although divorce is common in our culture, it is never easy. Some divorces are more amicable than others. Some involve more or less complex division of the marital property whether it is a person's separate property or any community property that was obtained through the course of the marriage. The details of your divorce are very personal to you and each person's situation will be unique. Whether it is to help you through property and custody negotiations or even taking the matter to mediation or trial, I will help you put this difficult process in the past so that you can move forward with your life.

The same can be said of a criminal defense matter. Hopeful next steps are what you need to turn a negative into a positive. After spending a number of years as a prosecutor and now working with people accused of criminal acts, I am skilled on both sides of criminal law matters and am ready to provide you every available opportunity to help yourself. Most importantly, I will protect your constitutional rights and skillfully defend you before a prosecutor, judge and/or jury.
