Firm Overview

For more than a decade, I have served the Rock Island area. My firm provides the type of legal services that impact your day-to-day life, from real estate and personal injury matters to criminal defense. 

I grew up in the area and know the real-life challenges and obstacles people in the community face. And I’m licensed to practice law in both Illinois and Iowa. 

My practice is built around helping people like you move their lives forward in a positive direction, whether that means buying your first house, fighting a criminal charge, or seeking fair compensation when you’ve been injured. 

I know you need reliable information to make good decisions about your next steps–including whether to hire an attorney to represent you and who that attorney should be. That’s why I offer free consultations. 

Main Practice Areas

My legal practice is focused in a few areas, including: 

Criminal Defense / DUI Defense

I know a criminal conviction can have a lasting effect on your life and your family. I have extensive experience in criminal defense in and around Rock Island County, and did an internship with the local prosecuting attorney’s office. I have deep knowledge of the local court system and the substantive and procedural law, which means I have all the tools and experience necessary to assess the case against you, investigate, negotiate, and–if it’s in your best interest–fight the charges against you before a jury. 

Personal Injury / Car Accident Cases

An injury can throw your life off track. Even if your injuries are relatively short-term and you fully recover, medical bills and lost work time can shake your foundations. If those injuries and losses were someone else’s fault, you deserve compensation. I’m dedicated to helping injury victims in the Rock Island area get fair settlements or verdicts so they can rebuild after an injury. 

Real Estate Transactions

Real estate plays an important role in the average person’s life. Whether you’re buying or selling your home, renting out property you own, building a home, or leasing space for your business, that real estate and how you manage it is integral to your life or work–or both. I’m here to make sure your interests are protected, that you fully understand what you’re agreeing to, and that you have options if something goes wrong with the real estate transaction.
