Fees
  • Free Consultation
    I do not charge to consult with a potential client, no matter the situation they face (criminal defense or otherwise). I will clearly state my fee depending on the criminal charges that a client faces so that there are no surprises to the client during my handling of the matter in terms of what my fee will be to represent them from beginning to end.
  • Credit Cards Accepted
  • Contingent Fees
    I do accept contingent fees, but only in cases that involve personal injuries. Contingent fees are ethically prohibited in matters of criminal defense.
