About
I've been creating winning arguments for more than a decade in subjects ranging from bankruptcy to immigration to foreclosure defense to trusts and estates to real property disputes (and many more in between). I have honed my legal research and writing skills continuously. But I also have a personal knack for persuasion (both oral and written).
