Hi there.

Yes. I'm an attorney. But get those stuffy images and greedy stereotypes out of your head. I became an attorney to help people and I'm here to help you.

So thanks for stopping by- I'm The Attorney Next Door! :)

After spending nearly a decade working in Europe and Asia for large international law firms, I recently opened a lean law firm in Los Angeles focused on resolving commercial disputes through arbitration & meditation. My main focus is handling matters with an international element and working with social impact entrepreneurs. I often work with social enterprises that incorporate a social mission into their business models, particularly smaller, more entrepreneurial companies.
