WHY HIRE ME?

Open a phone book, any local phone book, and you will find plenty of lawyers in the Wilkes-Barre / Scranton area that want your business. The truth is they are all educated, licensed, and qualified. But, not all lawyers are the same.

If you look closely you may notice that I don’t advertise in the phone book. Why not? Because, I believe hiring a lawyer is an important decision and requires far more information than what can be learned from a phone book advertisement. I want my clients to make an informed decision about my services. When you hire a lawyer you should know what you are getting from the start. Hopefully, this information with help you make a sound decision.

RELATIONSHIP

I feel that the attorney-client relationship is more than a legal classification and a business agreement. To me it is a critical personal relationship. For that reason, I want to all know about my clients, their story, and why they want my help. I want to know your goals and understand them. I want to comprehend your point of view and express it in a legal argument.

ACCESS AND COMMUNICATION

Further, I believe it is fundamentally important that I am easily accessible to my clients. I pride myself on reliable and honest communication with my clients. In fact, I will be the person who will answer and return your phone calls. Every time you call.

THINKING OUTSIDE THE FILE

I understand that the contents of a case file do not tell the entire story. My investigation does not end with the file on my desk. I believe in listening to my clients and following all logical leads. Often the simplest searches beyond the file can yield game changing results.

CONSIDERING COLLATERAL CONSEQUENCES

Legal actions have reach beyond law offices and courtrooms. I understand the human element of cases and believe it is important to consider and discuss their impact. In short, the best legal strategy may not always be what is best for you. I never lose site of the fact that the case belongs to the client.

YOUR GOAL IS MY GOAL

If you hire me, my focus will be on your case and achieving your goals. We will discuss your case, weigh your options, and decide what approach is best for you. I will give you and your case the time, attention, and effort it deserves.
