Serving Boise Since 1979.
I have been a practicing attorney since 1972, an adjunct professor of law since 1980, an arbitrator since 1985 and a mediator since 1989. I have conscientiously owned and operated my own law firm since 1986, genuinely caring for my clients and advancing their interests. I can competently handle your legal matter — or I will find someone for you that can. 90% of my business comes from referrals, a matter of honor and importance for me.
I know that legal matters are difficult for people, and that legal procedures can often be frightening, uncertain and unnecessarily expensive. Recognizing that, I act not only as your lawyer or arbitrator/mediator, but as a teacher and problem-solver for my clients, taking the mystery out of procedures and getting the job done rather than just feeding the process.
I specialize in numerous areas of law, including civil litigation, family law, business law, divorce & domestic issues, commercial law, consumer issues, contracts, construction disputes, custody matters, probate, sales & leases, corporations, employment, estate planning, insurance issues, landlord & tenant law, negligence, partnerships, wills & trusts, personal injury, property matters, and arbitration/mediation.
