My favorite aspect of my work is adapting to the ever-changing challenges inherent with evolving legal schemes -- and whatever the judge throws at you. Serving our clients well depends on attentive listening and maintaining a creative approach. I pride myself on paying close attention to the way each problem is presented and working tenaciously to overcome any obstacles.
