MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"My approach to client service starts with understanding the client’s goals and the impact the legal issues may have on the business. Rarely is the issue solely legal. From the beginning it’s a partnership dedicated to our client’s objectives and achieving their best result. I listen, take the time to get to know my in-house colleagues, and what is important to them, including the business objectives and risk tolerance. Our relationship transcends individual matters and focuses on our long term commitment."
