I have been a licensed attorney in Ohio and Michigan since 1976. My undergraduate degree is in chemical engineering. My scientific background has been invaluable to me in my practice. I have handled thousands of cases in numerous areas of the law.

Over the years, I have developed a special interest and extensive knowledge in representing people regarding child abuse related cases. I have handled criminal and domestic cases involving alleged sexual assault and false allegations of child abuse. The most difficult cases are those of the falsely accused. These include adults accused of adult rape and adults and children accused of molesting their own children, stepchildren or others. Each case is different and the facts and circumstances need to be thoroughly explored. Of the numerous cases I have tried to a jury, the vast majority have resulted in acquittals for my clients.

I stay informed of the current research in these areas. I attend conferences around the country where I often lecture and meet some of the top experts in the areas of psychology, psychiatry and medicine. I have been able to use the services of these experts to help explain to juries how false allegations come about and how many doctors misinterpret what they see as alleged sexual abuse, when it may not be abuse at all. Just because an alleged victim says it's so, does not make it so!

I have handled a number of drunk driving cases, including homicide cases as a result of alcohol abuse.

I have handled drug cases ranging from minor offenses to substantial quantities of drugs, including marijuana, cocaine, crack cocaine, PCP, LSD and others.

I have hundreds of clients who refer cases to me. Numerous attorneys have contacted me to assist them or handle cases for them in a number of areas of the law. I do not like to lose and I will work hard for you to try and receive the best possible result.

I have never entered into a partnership with other lawyers for a number reasons. However, I share office space with several other lawyers who are of great assistance to me and my clients, including Adrian P. Cimerman, Carla B. Davis, Jill M. Varnes-Richardson, Scott E. Spencer, George Gernot III, Amy E. Stoner and Geoffrey A. Cottier.

We are capable of handling criminal and traffic cases, family law cases, personal injury and malpractice cases, real estate matters, probate and most other areas of the law. If we are unable to handle your problems, we can refer you to competent counselors who can.
