Commercial Litigation
Businesses are oftentimes caught in challenging circumstances, disagreements, and even conflicts arising out of unexpected legal issues. When legal concerns require sophisticated and nuanced analysis, it makes sense to consult an attorney familiar with Arizona's legal and regulatory landscape, as well as with insurance coverage issues. My experience in advising and litigating commercial matters has demonstrated that creative and practical solutions need not involve protracted and costly lawsuits. ​Whether merging or separating businesses, or addressing breach of contract disputes, let my experience work to your advantage.
Personal Injury Law
I’ve been practicing Personal Injury Law for years, primarily on the defense side of the equation. My clients benefit from my experience representing companies and insurance carriers, and my familiarity with stall/delay tactics that can lead to protracted engagements. My involvement always ensures a focus on practical and expeditious resolution. If, however, a case needs to go to trial, it is imperative to use an attorney that has gone the distance and is not afraid of the courtroom. Let my trial experience be an asset in advocating your claim, however large or small.

5 Ways to Select A Lawyer
When selecting an attorney consider:
1. Do I need an attorney? Many minor legal issues may seem daunting, but can be navigated without the cost of formal representation. For example, the courts provide many basic forms that allow self-represented parties to apply for child support, divorce, custody, etc. http://www.superiorcourt.maricopa.gov/ezcourtforms2/
​
2. What background and experience does the attorney have? Do not select representation based on marketing and advertising campaigns. Due diligence is imperative. Ask about trial experience and results as to your own attorney. Do not settle for working with junior attorneys who work for others that have extensive experience and results, but do not have the same track record themselves.
3. What will be done? It is imperative that you and your attorney clearly set forth what work will (and will not) be done. Confirm the scope of representation in writing. Particularly when considering litigation, do not ignore the possibility that one or more parties may appeal a decision.
​
4. What will it cost? Assuming you need an attorney, and you find one who has relevant experience to do the work you need, always get an estimate of fees and costs. Far too many matters result in sticker shock to the client. This can be avoided by getting a clear idea at the outset of possible best-case and worst-case scenarios from any prospective attorney.
​
5. How often can you expect to be updated regarding your case? The number one complaint about attorneys is lack of communication. To avoid this pitfall, establish clear expectations regarding how often you expect your attorney will be in touch with you. While you may not be able to reach him/her at any time, you should be able to expect a response to a phone call or email within 48 hours.
Litigation
Generally, litigation is a last resort. Most people prefer to avoid conflict, particularly when it can involve court appearances, depositions, and delving into medical and financial issues. In these circumstances, an experienced attorney can make all the difference. I pride myself in managing stress for clients, prioritizing customer service, and maintaining consistent communication with my clients.  In most cases, I handle 90% of the work, and clients are involved as minimally as possible. By explaining the process, time estimates, and work plan, my clients breathe easier and have reasonable expectations as I work towards practical solutions.
How to Dress for Your Court Appearance
Always dress professionally for court. Whether trial is taking place or there is a simple status or scheduling conference, appearance makes a tremendous difference. Do not underestimate a first impression.
