No Time to Breathe?
I Can Help You.
Your clients are important to you. Your representation of clients is important to you. I am here to help you with your important stuff.
Legal research and drafting documents are time-consuming tasks. These tasks are difficult to complete during the day. Your research and writing are interrupted by client calls, staff questions, communications from opposing counsel, emails, texts, and the list continues.
You try to save time by trusting a law clerk with the work. How many times have you been dissatisfied with the result? Were you forced to "burn the midnight oil" to get it done to your satisfaction? I will eliminate the midnight oil for you. With close to thirty years of practicing law and writing legal documents too numerous to count, I will create the document you need when you need it and to your complete satisfaction.
You may be considering hiring another associate, law clerk, or paralegal. Contact me first. I may be the solution you need.
Let Me Tackle Those
Prickly Problems.
I will complete all of the research and writing you need to be performed in a professional manner at a reasonable cost. You can have more time, more flexibility, and be more productive.
Summary of eight inches of medical records? What about that demand letter? Happy to oblige. Do you need legal issues analyzed? I will get to the bottom, top, and both sides of any issue because I believe in preparation.
Ready to enter into the litigation arena with your Complaint or Answer? Need Interrogatories, Requests for Admission, Request for Production of Documents? I can draft your motions and briefs in opposition.
Is it time for trial briefs, jury instructions, and motions in limine? Unfortunate error occur and you need an appellate brief?
What are the items on your to-do list that you want to get done? Contact me to help you get them done.
So, You Want to Know my Bona Fides?
My many years of practice and diverse experience enable me to research, analyze, and effectively present your legal issues - clearly and concisely.
Since the beginning of my legal career, I have been representing people injured by the wrongful acts of others. I understand your struggle to obtain just compensation for your clients. Helping you seek justice is what I do.
As a member of the Ohio Association for Justice, six articles I authored were printed in OAJ's publication, Ohio Trial. I also prepared two Amicus Curiae Briefs. My almost thirty-year legal career has been focused on Plaintiffs' personal injury cases. I am only licensed to practice law in the state of Ohio and currently am a solo practitioner in Reynoldsburg, Ohio. In 1991, My B.A. in English was obtained from Washington & Jefferson College where I graduated summa cum laude. While at W&J, I became a member of the Phi Beta Kappa Society. I received my J.D. in 1991 from The Ohio State University Moritz College of Law and graduated with honors.
I do not know what we would do without you. What I do know is that you add a layer of professionalism and quality to the work generated by our office and Mandy and I will be forever grateful. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
