About

I moved to Green Bay in 1986 after graduating from Marquette University Law School. Law school gives a young attorney a foundation upon which to build a career. Experience and time are what season an attorney. I am a business attorney. I help my clients succeed using what I have learned representing hundreds of businesses and business owners. Many attorneys will tell you they can handle all your legal needs. That is seldom the case.  What creates a successful attorney client partnership is straightforward open communication, real experience acquired over years of practice in a few, but not all, areas of the law, fair and honest billing practices, accessibility and accountability and an attorney’s ability to recognize his or her own limitations.

On a more personal note, my wife and I have raised three successful children, several lovable dogs and one cat since moving to Green Bay. This is our home and we are so glad to be a part of the community. Go Pack Go!

“Don’t be afraid to call your attorney. It is easier to keep you out of trouble than it is to get you out of trouble. It is also less expensive.”
