Our court systems are based on the adversarial system. Although the facts generally drive a case to its conclusion a well prepared attorney on either side can sometimes make a difference.

I believe everyone accused of a crime deserves a well-prepared and dedicated attorney.

I believe without a competent defense attorney the checks and balances of our justice system become out of balance and justice is not done.

I believe that all persons fail themselves and others during their lifetime. However, if we do not temper justice with mercy we are only left with wrath.

I believe everyone deserves a second chance.

I believe in a fair fight. Criminal cases are titled “State v. John Doe” because the entire resources of the State are against one person.

I believe that our right to a criminal jury trial under our Constitution is something that is coveted, and should be protected.
