I am a practical solutions-oriented attorney with extensive corporate, securities and mergers & acquisition experience.  My clients value my ability to provide quality legal counsel with practical business advice and creative solutions, and to make "legalese" easy to understand.

I enjoy being a partner at Tonkon Torp, a member of the firm’s Managing Board and Chair of our Mergers & Acquisitions Practice Group.  I appreciate Tonkon’s commitment to maintaining and building a sophisticated business law practice.  With over 80 lawyers, Tonkon Torp is one of the largest law firms headquartered in Oregon.  And, though our size and practice areas have grown since the firm was founded over 40 years ago, Tonkon's core values of excellent legal work, leadership, client service and community involvement remain unchanged.

Specialties: Mergers & Acquisitions, Corporate Governance, Corporate Compliance, Commercial Contracts, Corporate Finance, Securities, and Information Privacy & Security.
