I  graduated from Central Washington University (B.A.) in 1987 and Gonzaga University School of Law (J.D.)  in 1990.   I have  extensive trial experience in family law, criminal law and civil matters.  Following law school, I joined the Franklin County, Washington, Prosecutor’s Office, where I tried and won numerous cases.  In 1995, I joined the law firm of Critchlow, Williams & Schuster, P.S., in Richland, Washington, where I continued as a trial attorney in the areas of family law, criminal law, and personal injury.  From 2002 until moving to Arizona in 2005, I maintained my own firm, with a continuing emphasis on family law and litigation.  Upon gaining admission to practice law in the State of Arizona in November 2005, I joined the law firm of Campbell & Mahoney, Chtd., where I tried multiple civil cases to million dollar verdicts.  Since 2012 I have practiced exclusively in the area of family law.
