​
In my more than 25 years' experience, I have served clients in a multitude of capacities. Although my current practice focuses primarily on the areas of family law, bankruptcy, probate and personal injury, I also draft deeds, land contracts, wills, and business contracts.
In my previous position with JAG Corps, I performed a variety of tasks including criminal prosecution and claims processing. At my last base, I was selected to be a defense counsel and represented clients at United States Air Force bases across the southeastern United States. I was also selected to be a Special Assistant United States Attorney while stationed in Florida, and prosecuted civilians for criminal offenses committed on Federal installations. During my time in the United States Air Force, I was stationed in Mississippi, the Republic of South Korea, and Florida. I was fortunate to travel throughout the United States and the world in my service to the United States Air Force.
