"I grew up in a family of entrepreneurs.  My parents own multiple businesses.  My brother has his own business too.  I learned many invaluable lessons working with my parents in their businesses for almost 20 years before starting my own law firm focused on business law.  I learned about and experienced the tremendous pressures placed on business owners, the high levels of commitment and hard work demanded of them, and the painful sacrifices they must be willing to make to get a business off the ground and to keep it running.  Business owners don’t just have their own families counting on them, but they also have their employees and their employees' families counting on them too.  I also learned that having the right business lawyer assist you is crucial to your business' success.  Having a business attorney who understands from personal experience the many obstacles business owners face just to make payroll, rent, and, generally, to keep their doors open is critical.  When representing my clients, I bring my experience working in my family's businesses and as a former "big firm" attorney to every matter I undertake. Regardless of the client or the matter, my goal is to provide each and every client with skilled representation and practical, business savvy legal advice."
