If you’re dealing with a system that’s working against you from the start, I can help even your odds.

When it seems getting a fair shake is next to impossible, I can help. Since 1980, I’ve represented people, small businesses, and associations in state and federal courts with various cases. Some of these cases include boundary disputes, easements, timber trespass, water trespass, and environmental contamination. I know how to deliver results.

Case Results

Alleged Violations of Workplace Health Regulations

Our client, an environmental testing laboratory, was cited by the Department of Labor and Industries for alleged violations of workplace health regulations. We took the position that the cited regulation did not apply to testing laboratories, and that in any event, it was not violated.

After extensive discovery, the Department agreed to vacate the citation.

Disconnected Water Supply

Our client, a private water district, intervened in a lawsuit between two of its commercial customers when one customer cut off the other customer’s water supply by disconnecting a pipeline. We argued that our client owned the water system components and had a prescriptive easement for water mains to cross on the customers’ properties.

Judgment Entered in Favor of Client

In 1984, our client had signed a promissory note to a Texas-based savings and loan association for promised securities from the S&L’s president. He never received the securities, and the S&L’s president was convicted of fraud.

With Me, You'll Always Have A Straight Answer.

I BREAK DOWN THE LEGAL ISSUES FOR YOU.

When it comes to property rights and workplace law, a lot of attorneys think they’ve got it under control. Once they’ve secured the client, it’s not long before they discover cases like this are harder than they thought. As a result, the attorney fails to deliver a favorable outcome and the client walk away defeated. This doesn’t have to be your reality.

I have the skills and experience to get you the best possible results. Since 1980, I’ve worked on cases just like yours. In taking you on as a client, you’ll discover my dexterity in these areas to be just what you need.

I WILL ALWAYS BE UPFRONT ABOUT YOUR CASE.

There’s no point in having an attorney you don’t trust. It doesn’t matter how adept the attorney is or if they’ve practiced law for decades. Knowing you can rely on your attorney is a fundamental factor in winning your case.

The truth of the matter is that cases like this are usually complicated and not necessarily logical. You need an attorney you can depend on to come up with a game plan that will lead you to success. For that reason, my approach is honest and upfront so that you’re always clear on what’s going on. My goal is to keep the lines of communication open in order to create a strategy that proves victorious for you.
