Practice AReas

Whether you need help obtaining an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) accommodation, returning to work after a Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) absence or believe you are a victim of discrimination on the basis of your race or gender, I am the lawyer you need on your side.

Skilled in employment law counseling, I believe in preventing issues before they arise by addressing every aspect of the employment relationship proactively. It begins with the drafting, review and evaluation of agreements defining the employment relationship. If  you are changing employers, I can help you review your employment contract, termination agreement, or severance offer. If you are trying to decide whether you need representation, I encourage you to contact me for a complimentary consultation to learn more about why having a lawyer is the best practice.

My 20-year career representing both individuals and businesses of all sizes provides me a unique and balanced perspective to legal disputes and how they can and should be resolved. I have substantive experience in employment, commercial and IP matters in courts across the country. I also draw knowledge and perspective from my prior career in human resources and my work as a teacher/instructor. And my commitment to access to justice means that your time with me will cost a fraction of what it would cost with an ADR service. 

 If a law firm has made allegations that you or your business has violated Section 553 and/or 605 of the Communications Act , I can help you understand your options. I have significant experience resolving these matters before litigation is filed but have also litigated these matters all the way to trial.

 If you recently received notification from your ISP provider or a law firm stating that you have been named a defendant in a BitTorrent copyright infringement lawsuit, the next steps you take can significantly impact the outcome of your case.  I encourage you to contact me to discuss your settlement and litigation options promptly. I have experience navigating these cases nationwide.
