I became a bankruptcy lawyer in 2001 after moving back to my hometown, Carlisle. While Living in Carlisle I became discouraged watching my friends and neighbors struggling with the financial difficulties that followed after the Jockey Inc., plants closed. Since then I have had the privilege of helping hundreds of Kentuckians file for bankruptcy under Chapter 7 and Chapter 13. My clients come from all walks of life – from the single mom struggling to get by and raise her family to families strung out by overwhelming medical bills.

My experience in the law is not limited to Social Security Disability, Bankruptcy and Consumer Protection. I am proud to have worked with hundreds of clients facing all types of legal problems. I am very familiar with personal injury (car wrecks, slip & falls, dog bites) along with representing those charged with crimes or facing a divorce.

My clients know they can count on me to take on the toughest cases, and to work to get the results they deserve. In fact, my goal is for all my clients to receive all the protections available to them before, during and after the bankruptcy process.

How do I do it? By understanding not only the U.S. Bankruptcy Code, but all the other laws that impact consumers – the Fair Credit Reporting Act, the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, the Truth In Lending Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, and more.

Every year I spend hours upon hours in conference halls, listening to and learning from the greatest legal minds from around the country. I take the best advice, the strongest tactics and the most convincing arguments and adapt them to my clients’ needs.

After all, learning never ends – the law changes every day, and my job is to make sure I’m on top of new developments.

I am connected with attorneys and legal experts from around the country. Those contacts allow me to be informed about changes and new trends in the law placing me in an position to be as aggressive as possible in protecting my clients and getting them what they deserve.
