Q & A

What do you enjoy most about your practice?

The thing I enjoy most about my practice is using my creativity. Whether I am researching and analyzing legal issues, developing and refining arguments in written memorandum, or crafting discovery responses, I have to be creative and strategic. This ultimately requires understanding each clients’ specific interests and goals and considering how to further them.

What kinds of challenges get you most excited?

All cases present their own unique challenges and that is what makes the practice of law exciting. The law is seldom black and white even for seemingly straightforward issues. As a lawyer, you have to be prepared—and excited—to tackle all challenges that come your way.
