Biography
I am a skilled California Business and Tax attorney. I represent clients with complex domestic and international law matters.
With over 20 years of experience, I am knowledgeable in a vast array of legal planning, transactions and disputes. I am dedicated to providing exceptional service and representation to businesses and nonprofit groups.
Outside of the office, I am committed to community involvement, serving in government, civic, and charitable organizations. In 2017, I was honored as Hermosa Beach's Man of the Year, for "generous contributions of time and resources".
