My Commitment to My Clients
Having lived in Southern AZ for most of my life, I have a strong connection to the community here. In my practice, I have always advocated for the rights of the individual in the face of more powerful entities, such as a corporation or government agency. This commitment to the people of our community has motivated me as both a civil plaintiff’s attorney and a criminal defense attorney.
