Attorney Information
Overview
I was born in suburban Chicago, grew up in Charlotte, North Carolina, and attended Wake Forest University. After working for a large law firm while in college and graduating with a bachelor’s degree in economics, I attended Georgia State University College of Law in Atlanta.
During law school, I interned with the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Georgia. There, I was involved in the prosecution of federal drug, fraud, and white-collar crime cases. I was also given the rare opportunity as an intern to make arguments and question witnesses in a mail fraud jury trial in which the defendant was convicted.
After graduating from law school in 2008 and working for a year in a private civil firm, I joined the Office of the Fulton County Solicitor General in early 2010. For more than 5 years, I prosecuted thousands of criminal cases involving a wide range of charges. Among these charges were DUI, battery, theft, stalking, hit and runs, driving with a suspended license, vehicular homicide, reckless driving, speeding, and other traffic offenses.
Insight Gained from The Other Side
During my time as a prosecutor, I negotiated pleas, argued motions to suppress, and represented the State as lead counsel in numerous bench and jury trials. I also received training from police officers in how they conduct DUI investigations. These experiences gave me a unique insight into criminal law, which to this day benefits the clients I defend in criminal cases.
You see, having worked alongside other prosecutors and police officers, I understand how they think and what makes them tick. This gives me a distinct advantage when preparing a defense on behalf of my client. As I thoroughly investigate the facts and evidence, I consider all possible avenues in order to find the one that will give my client their best chance at a successful outcome.
Applying My Approach to Other Areas of The Law
Once I became established as a criminal defense attorney, I decided to expand my practice to include personal injury. I chose to make this change because, the way I see it, people who have been wrongfully injured need a strong advocate on their side — and who better to represent them than someone whose focus has always been on justice?

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
