Born in Ann Arbor, Michigan, I have been in Hawaii for more than 25 years and consider it my home. I enjoy outdoor activities, such as surfing and rock climbing, and spending time with my wife and twin boys. I represent clients throughout the state of Hawaii Islands in criminal defense, family law, personal injury and civil rights issues. After previously living in Hong Kong, Taiwan and China I am also fluent in Mandarin.

I focus on your individual needs and strive to achieve the most effective resolution for your case. Navigating the legal system can be frustrating and confusing. Whether you are seeking a divorce, compensation for injuries or a strong defense against criminal charges, I have the knowledge and resources to assist you in achieving justice.
