Attorney at Law - Bellevue, WA

About The Attorney

 

 

I am an attorney in Bellevue, Washington.  I have an MBA and a law degree, which gives me a lot of depth in dealing with complex financial cases. I focus primarily on family law, including divorce, and personal injury cases.  I am an Eagle member of  Washington State Association for Justice (WSAJ); and a member of the King County Bar Association and the Snohomish County Bar Association.

I am a trial lawyer; I like advocating in court for my clients. I do an average of 5-6 trials a year, and I am in court on the motions calendar, in one county or the other, an average of 2-3 mornings per week. 

I have been practicing in King and Snohomish County since 1995.  I graduated from the University of Puget Sound in 1995 (the year they sold the Law School to Seattle University). I handle perhaps 50 cases a year, which break down to approximately two thirds in King County and one third in Snohomish County. I am a member of the Bar Associations for both counties, and I am very familiar with how each county operates.

 My philosophy is simple: I have been in court, in trial, and on the motions calendar a lot. I know what works and what doesn’t. I have a pretty good idea what the court is likely to do, given a fact pattern.  My job is to win as much as we possibly can

At the same time, I don’t fight just to bill the time; I will always give you a good idea what your odds are and what a likely outcome is, so you know the risk.  My role is to be your advocate; your attorney; but it’s also to counsel you so you make good decisions about your case.

I do much of my own work. I get in early and answer email and phone calls promptly. I scan in and email you copies of everything important, so you get it quickly.

Experience makes a huge difference in how your case turns out. Sometimes you may well find there is no case; or that it’s not worth pursuing. I’ll tell you that as well. I don’t want to take money from you, to fight cases we can’t win. Nobody is happy at the end of cases like that.  But when you have to have a fight, or when you are in the middle of a fight, you want someone who has the experience to win.  Call me.
