Meet The Advocate

With over 30 years in the legal field, I’ve encountered a wide range of cases and situations. As I often say, “I have seen shine and I have seen rain. I have seen days that I thought would never end.” This wealth of experience allows me to navigate even the most complex legal challenges effectively.

Inventor

In addition to my legal career, I’m also a patented inventor. Prior to my law career, I worked as a Research Chemist for Standard Oil of Ohio (now BP). During this time, I invented a chemical process that was granted a U.S. patent.

My Patent

• Title: Preparation of 3-methyl pyridine from 2-methylglutaronitrile

This unique background in chemistry and innovation provides me with a distinctive perspective that I bring to my legal practice, especially in cases involving technical or scientific elements.
