I work well with entrepreneurs and management at every level, serving almost every legal need a business may have, from cradle to grave (and even beyond). My significant experience as both in-house and outside counsel, combined with strong business acumen and financial skills, make me a very effective advisor; while my competitive spirit and passion for your success make me your best advocate. I thoroughly enjoy getting to know you and what you do, your customers and your markets.

I can help you start a new business; grow your business through merger or acquisition; make sure you have solid but fair customer, supplier and other contracts; assist with employee issues; help you protect your brand and business with trademark and other intellectual property protection; work with you to manage risk; create succession and estate plans; and help you win a fight if it comes to that.

On a personal note, I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, competitive sports and outdoor activities.  I stay fit through regular exercise and Tae Kwon Do, in which I have obtained a second degree black belt.  I believe that a healthy balance between professional and personal activities is essential to quality of life.
