Biography

I was born and raised in Fairbanks, Alaska, where I practiced law from 1977. I was a municipal attorney for the first part of my legal career, and then switched to private practice. I conducted a general private law practice, with emphasis in civil litigation and bankruptcy. I also taught several college-level courses relating to various aspects of the law. In 2004, my family and I moved to Florida and have been here ever since. From 2011 to 2015 I worked for another lawyer in Walton County, assisting him in his office, especially with scheduling of attendance at real estate foreclosure hearings in behalf of secured creditors. I was admitted to the Florida bar in 2016.

Q. Can I share transaction details w/a business broker/consultant without breaching a business contract? and with a lawyer?
A: It is not likely that the agreement could be interpreted to prohibit you from sharing the terms with an attorney under such circumstances; and the fact that you do so would probably be confidential in any case. Run your dilemma by an attorney with experience in such matters to determine, first, if the terms of the agreement should be shared with an attorney. Then, with advice from the attorney, find a broker/consultant.
Q. Hi, so I just turned 19 and have been gifted a handgun, it's a ghost gun (big gray area there), can I legally carry it?
A: Yes, you can have it in your vehicle "if the firearm ... is securely encased or is otherwise not readily accessible for immediate use." See Florida Statute 790.25 (5) and, generally, see: http://www.leg.state.fl.us/Statutes/index.cfm?App_mode=Display_Statute&URL=0700-0799/0790/0790ContentsIndex.html&StatuteYear=2022&Title=%2D%3E2022%2D%3EChapter%20790
Q. LAWS REGARDING? MY LEASE WAS FORGED WITH MY SIGNATURE & BACK DATED, RETURNED WITH NONE OF MY NOTES, IT WAS 32 PAGES.
A: Send them written notification by certified mail that what they gave you was not the same as what you signed. If they seek to enforce terms different than what you signed, you can try to prove the different terms. But unless you kept a copy including your 'notes' and missing pages, you may find it difficult to prove the missing material.
