I am a business and real estate attorney that seeks to develop long term relationships with business organizations, developers and individuals. As an attorney, I seek to help my clients with the legal aspects of business and personal development projects and with managing legal risks in an increasingly integrated and regulated business environment. My work requires strategic planning, structuring and documenting, as well as legal risk management and dispute resolution functions.
My specialties include corporate, finance, real estate, commercial, mergers and acquisition, commercial and administrative litigation and dispute resolution, employment, intellectual property, estate planning and corporate succession, tax and regulatory matters.
