About

  • You want to know more about your lawyer than whether he is capable of handling your case
  • By the end of the case, you and your lawyer better trust each other, know each and honestly care about each other
  • My belief is that to help a person in a legal crisis, I must know you as a person – not just another case
  • That means you should know more about me than where I went to school
  • I am a husband
  • My wife Kristi is a native New Mexican who grew up on a cattle ranch in Roy, New Mexico
  • Her family settled the ranch back in the early 1940s and have raised cattle and kids there ever since
  • I am a father
  • I have three wonderfully full of life children
  • I am also a Christian
  • My faith and my belief in redemption is what drives me to do this work
  • I don’t think that you have to be a trial attorney to make the world better and to live in the likeness of Jesus, but it is what makes sense to me
  • If I can help people in crisis and be a calm witness in the midst of the storm, then maybe God can use that to His Glory
  • I am also an athlete
  • I love to get away from everything with a hard run in early morning hours or a solitary bike ride
  • I have raced the Hawaii Ironman twice and ran 100 miles at the Leadville Trail 100
  • I think balance in life is difficult to find, but even harder to get back aligned when out of whack
  • Trust me when I say, that I work as hard as anyone I know, but I will always find time for my family and for myself
  • In the end that time away makes me a better lawyer
  • As a lawyer, I have always wanted to try difficult cases to juries
  • To be respected by the other side, they must know that we are willing to fight all the way to the end and get results in Court
  • Our track record at trial speaks to who we are and how far we are willing to go to make things right
