Claimed Lawyer Profile
Biography

My background combines experience both as a prosecutor and criminal defense attorney, as well as experience as an academic, concentrating on appellate practice and civil and criminal procedure.

After graduating from the University of Michigan Law School, I served a clerkship to a federal judge; thereafter, I was a prosecutor in the Manhattan District Attorney’s office for 5 years.

Following a tour as a full time law professor at Washington & Lee University, I entered private practice in 1975, where I have remained to date; my areas of practice consist mainly of criminal and civil litigation with a specialty in appeals; family law, trusts & estates, wills and general practice comprise the remainder of my areas of concentration.
