Biography

My law practice focuses primarily on high stakes litigation. I represent businesses and individuals in State and Federal courts. In recent years, I achieved favorable verdicts in some of the most notorious fraud cases in modern North Carolina history, including a $ million contract fraud case, the UNC athlete agent scandal, and a multi-million-dollar Ponzi scheme. In 2018, I became a North Carolina State Bar Board Certified Specialist in state criminal law. My philosophy is to be fully engaged in the representation of my clients. I will communicate candidly, prepare thoroughly, and advocate zealously. This is my promise.
