What I enjoy most about my practice is the opportunity to step in when clients are facing uncertainty and bring clarity, strategy, and calm. I work best when I’m closely aligned with my clients, understanding how their businesses function so I can offer practical guidance, not just legal theory. The goal is always the same: solve the problem, minimize risk, and keep the business moving forward.
