De Leon Springs Business Lawyers

I chose to enter the legal profession to serve others in need. While community service and civic engagement organizations are part of my personal life, I believe that the legal profession allows me to extend those values to my professional life.

I practice primarily in Jacksonville, Florida, where I live with my wife, our daughters, and our two dogs. My family is the most important part of my life and having them has only made me more appreciative and thankful for the opportunities I've been given.

When I'm not working I enjoy building computers, playing music, and reading.
