To be a really good bankruptcy lawyer, not only do you have to learn a lot about one specific area of law, but you must have a good grasp of other areas like real estate, wills, mortgages, divorce/family law, criminal, etc. Every day is filled with clients with their own unique situation.

The best bankruptcy lawyer will look at the total situation for the client. Questions such as what is the imediate problem, what lead to the problem, are there non-bankruptcy alternatives, and how does it affect the whole family are all important for finding the best solution for the particular client seeking help. You have to understand people, be sympathetic to their situation, but be able to lead them through a difficult time with good legal advice, dignity and respect. My twenty+ years of experience give me a foundation of knowlege which helps me help my clients go through bankrutcy as smoothly as possible.

I believe in educating my clients about the law so they understand what bankruptcy is, how it works, and why it will help them.

I didn't set out to be a bankruptcy lawyer. I have a degree in architecture, and I went to law school with the intent to be a contruction/development lawyer. However I was lucky enough to be hired by a bankruptcy judge in 1988 and found bankruptcy law to be a great fit for me.

I worked for some excellent bankruptcy lawyers before opening my own practice in 1993. I handled Chapter 11 bankruptcy cases, worked for a Chapter 7 bankruptcy Trustee, but I liked representing consumers and small businesses in Chapter 7 and Chapter 13 the best. I love the interaction with my clients and making a difference in their lives.

Sassy is a Cairn Terrier (like Toto) who was rescued at the age of 3 in December 2010. Don't let her size fool you. She keeps watch over the office and bosses everyone around. Sassy's main focus in her job is to be sure that all new people who come in the office are noticed and greeted. She also lets us know if dogs walk by, squirrels taunt her through the window, or there are any odd noises that she doesn't recognize.

During meetings with clients, she is mostly asleep on her bed but does like human contact, and is always more than willing to sit on someone's lap if they really need a little extra hug.

A plus with Sassy is that she is hypo-allergenic (for a dog) and doesn't shed much. A minus is that terriers, like cats, seem to like to be in charge and don't always listen!

In Memory of Tanner

March 1998 - October 2010

Sadly, I lost Tanner to a breathing illness.

She provided comfort and reassurance to everyone who came into the office and is sorely missed.

. Tanner was a yellow lab rescued in 2002.

. She was the official greeter.

. She was also in charge of comforting any nervous clients.
. She came to the office everyday for 8 years and she took

her job very seriously.
