About

  • I grew up in Cleveland and attended public school, graduating from Midpark High School
  • Having wrestled and placed in the Ohio State finals taught me a great deal about discipline and hard work
  • This has followed me throughout my life causing me to put everything in to whatever tasks I face
  • As an attorney, I feel it is very important to listen to my clients and understand that while interaction with the courts and law enforcement is an every day event for me, it is NOT for my clients
  • I believe in a client's right to have their day in court and while I may give them my professional opinion on a matter, it is ultimately up to them to decide how they wish to proceed
  • In true instances where a state official is seen clearly violating the rights of a private citizen, I feel it is important for people to have someone to protect their rights and make certain that persons are held accountable
  • While I fully support law enforcement, bad officers give the good ones a bad reputation
  • That is why I have directed more of my professional efforts toward representing citizens who have had their civil rights violated by overzealous, unprofessional officers
  • I am proud to be a Clevelander and enjoy all of the wonderful things the city has to offer
  • I enjoy the outdoors, hunting, hiking with my dog, and taking long trips with my wife on our Harley Davidson
