YOUR LAWYER
About Me
I graduated from the University of Alabama and attended Quinnipiac University School of Law. I live in Atlanta but love the fact that my criminal defense practice takes me all over the beautiful state of Georgia. In my spare time, I like to keep active — whether I’m cycling all over the world or enjoying time with my kids and my dog, Whiskey. I also enjoy giving back to my community through volunteer work and working with local youth and their parents.
MY HISTORY
More Than A Decade of Experience
In the past ten years, I have developed an impressive record of getting charges dropped or punishments reduced. In addition to being a skilled advocate in the courtroom, I understand the importance of strategic advocacy. I thoroughly investigate each case to help my clients decide whether going to trial is their best option, or if they should consider a plea agreement.
Prior to practicing criminal defense, I served as general counsel in the corporate sector. As a corporate attorney, I developed formidable negotiating skills, which I now use to make sure each of my clients gets the best possible deal for his or her specific case.
SPECIALIZED TRAINING
Always Striving for More
The best criminal defense lawyers look at the evidence in each case and find the flaws in the State’s case. I believe that the best way to do this is to know the law, the science, and the investigatory techniques better than the police and prosecutors do. This is how cases are won.
For this reason, I have completed the same DUI training course as Georgia State Patrol Officers do, and am certified in DUI Detection and Standardization Field Sobriety Testing. I have also completed courses in Impaired Driving Chemical Testing and the Intoxilyzer 9000 (the breathalyzer used in Georgia DUI investigations).
