Those who know me best would say I have a natural affinity for public speaking, and over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to hone my skills through a variety of trials and lectures.
After graduating from law school, I went on to earn a doctorate in criminology, giving me great insight into the role of cell phone technology, DNA testing, and other medical sciences in criminal cases.
Lawyers who rely solely on their "courtroom panache" will often fall short. I work in close collaboration with Athens private investigator Stan Molnar to make sure every shred of evidence is available to defend my clients.
I have over 20 years' experience in criminal defense, a Ph.D., and extensive knowledge of forensics. Furthermore, I am a graduate of the National Criminal Defense College (NCDC), where I received advanced criminal defense and trial training.
While I realize that all attorneys claim they are committed, I strongly believe that I empathize with all of my clients. By limiting my practice in the number and types of cases I handle, I am able to more effectively address the needs of each individual.
My criminology background introduced me to a proven way to evaluate hypotheses and make new discoveries, and I have found that the same process can be used to prepare for my criminal cases today. It is my belief, after all, that the best attorneys never cease to expand their base of knowledge.
Due to my scientific training and my personal philosophy, I am willing and able to handle the most complex of cases. Rather than relying on the same static knowledge I learned from my legal textbooks years ago, I continually seek to learn and grow in ways that benefit each and every one of my clients.
