About

  • I am a cantankerous, determined, persistent, knowledgable and skilled attorney in my areas of practice
  • I do not have a reverse gear
  • I only know to go forward, to work hard, to thoroughly investigate, to use my superior knowledge of the law and the regulatory environment to client's advantage
  • I am aggressive, but businesslike
  • I am very much at home in the courtroom
  • I do not go to court looking schmooze and trade pictures of pets
  • I go there to take care of legal business, and to prevail over the state and all its minions and resources
  • I fully expect to do so
  • Those expectations are founded in fact and experience
  • I was the point of the spear in traffic for decades
  • I do not claim to be a generalist, or to be functional at all outside my realm: traffic, criminal law, and administrative law as it pertains to getting and keeping your license, and in clearing up your criminal record as much as the law allows
