Started practicing law in 1979 handling civil and criminal cases.  Now specialize helping clients charged with DUI, illegal drugs, aggravated assaults,  terroristic threats, domestic violence, shoplifting, theft, and robbery.  Have always had a deep interest in government, and politics, helping judges and prosecutors get reelected. Have obtained excellent results for clients in personal injury cases involving death, catastrophic injuries, brain damage and tractor trailer wreck cases. I am dedicated to getting the best results for all clients and have an excellent relationship with prosecutors, judges and police officers. I  have obtained not guilty verdicts and a reduction of charges for my clients on numerous occasions by pointing out the weakness of the State's case to the prosecutors.

In 1988 and 1989, I organized and conducted two People's Law Schools at Southern Poly State University, on behalf of the Georgia Trial Lawyers Association as a Vice President.  Recruited judges and lawyers to conduct classes of interest to the lay public.  The first class had 250 members and received recognition for its success from the legal community.  All Superior and State Court Judges appeared at the first class to be recognized for their contributions to the community for their service.

Have been a member of the Kiwanis Club of Marietta 36 years and received the Award of Merit for my service.

Served 3 years in the US Army, honorably discharged as a Sergeant E-5.  Used the GI Bill to become a Commercial Pilot with instrument and multi-engine ratings.
