Experience and dedication is key to a proper defense. Over 22 years experience in Criminal Defense as well as very valuable prosecutor experience. College education from Georgetown (J.D.) and Villanova (B.S.).
Car & Auto Accidents
Strong arguments, negotiation tactics & legal demands are key to the success of a car accident injury case in Virginia. A large percentage of law firms handle cases like an assembly line, which all too often leads to noticeably lower settlements. I focus on quality over quantity - inside and outside the courtroom.
