CIVIL CASES
I have extensive experience in various civil matters including employee and wage/hour litigation, ADA defense, Personal Injury (Plaintiff and Defense), Dog Bite Cases (Plaintiff and Defense), Landlord/Tenant disputes, Contractor/Homeowner litigation, and Business Transactions. We are a premier law firm with an old school mentality but an innovative and cost-effective approach: We simply win cases with hard work, dedication and smarts. I find winning solutions in places unknown to most lawyers.
Aloow me to successfully represent you as I have for hundreds of others. I know workplace, I know employment and I know how plaintiffs' lawyers think and I certainly know how to vindicate you. I have successfully represented clients before various government agencies such as the FBI, U.S. Department of Labor, D.E.A., U.S. Department of Justice, and U.S. Department of Homeland Security, a myriad of Police Departments and District Attorneys from different Counties. Additionally, I can handle all types of Administrative Hearings, School Board hearings, asset forfeitures and governmental seizures. Contact me to discuss your civil case.
