I work very hard to honor the sacred trust that my clients place in me by giving them unbiased advice and guidance so they can make the best decisions possible, for themselves and their businesses. My own sense of personal integrity demands nothing less. My expertise is in the emerging legal areas that I call Digital Business Risk such as Computer Fraud, Data Security, Privacy, Social Media Law, and Intellectual Property Litigation. My combined business law and litigation background enables me to help businesses assess, avoid, and resolve problems in the most expeditious way possible. While I am a lawyer, I am actually guided by principles I am fortunate to have the judgment, intensity, and creativity needed to best serve my clients by helping them achieve their strategic business objectives as defined by the unique needs of each client and matter.
