I will ask you to tell me your legal objectives at our first meeting. We will discuss your options, the likelihood of success, and the estimated cost to achieve your goals. I turn away many legal matters because if I do not think I can be successful, I do not want to take your money.

There are always two answers to your legal question: what is a law professor going to tell you, and what is an attorney with over 30 years of practical experience going to advise you to do? Real-world consideration must be contemplated before investing much money in an attorney. For example, you may be able to secure a judgment against the other party, but the other party is not employed or otherwise does not have assets to satisfy your judgment.

I am an avid tennis and hockey player, and I hate to lose. I will have the same competitive spirit when working on your case. I will exercise my best efforts and diligence to accomplish a favorable outcome for you.

I have represented large insurance companies, financial institutions, small businesses, and families. I treat all clients the same. All legal matters, regardless of the dollar amount, are important to me.

Some people may be deterred to going to an attorney to enforce a debt, because they have failed to have the debtor sign a contract or a promissory note. Even without such documentation, you may still be able to prove your claim by a cancelled check to the debtor, an email or letter from the debtor acknowledging the obligation or a partial payment from the debtor.
You only have three years from the due date of the debt to bring your claim or it will be extinguished by the statute of limitations. Although an oral promise to pay is harder to prove in court, it is still enforceable.

I love what I do and look forward to working every day to conquer new legal challenges. It is not about the money. It is about helping people. I derive a great deal of satisfaction knowing that by solving your legal problem, I have positively impacted your life.

Your legal matter is important to both you and me. You are eager to bring finality to your legal issue quickly. You will be informed by email of case developments as soon as they occur. You are also free to call me at any time.

You understandably need to know not only whether I can accomplish your legal goals but also how much it will cost to complete your project. I will try to accomplish your objectives at the lowest cost to you. I will also quote you a flat fee if possible or at least give you an approximate estimate of your legal expenses at the inception of your case.

A judgment is a declaration by a court that someone owes you money, but the result does not insure that you will ever see a dime from the opposing party. Most attorneys do not have the experience needed to collect a judgment after it is secured, and many of my clients are attorneys who need assistance collecting a judgment.
