Professional Background

He builds real relationships with the people he represents, treating every client with the respect and transparency they deserve — no matter the size of the case. His goal is not only to win, but to make sure clients feel informed, supported, and empowered throughout the legal process.
“I take pride in knowing my clients by name, not case number. Every case matters because every person matters.”
