Attorney at Law
the steadfast love of the LORD.
-Psalms 33:5
Basically, being an attorney is what I do.
Being a christian is about who I am. I
describe myself as a christian attorney
because I cannot separate who I am from
what I do.
So, does being a "christian attorney" mean I
can do things or provide services other
attorneys don't? No, and there are certainly
other attorneys out there who are also
christians.
Does it mean that I only represent clients who
are also christian? No, I represent individuals
and businesses based on their needs, my
caseload and my experience level and
capabilities.
In short, by describing myself in this way, I
am not attempting to solicit business from
one group or another or to set myself apart
from other attorneys in any way. I am simply
letting prospective clients and associates
know who I am-because who I am is so
integral to what I do.

I have several different fee setups. Services are provided
pursuant to either a flat fee agreement, an hourly fee
arrangement, or a contingency fee arrangement.
Flat Fee-Under this type of agreement, the service-most
typically reviewing or drafting contracts or other legal
documents-is provided for an agreed-upon one-time fee.
Hourly Fee-Under this type of agreement, the service-such as
representation in court-is provided for an agreed-upon hourly
fee. Often, the fee will be contingent upon the compexity and
difficulty level of the work involved and some cases may have
several different levels, i.e. $75/hour for work outside of court
and $100/hour for time spent in court.
Contingency Fee-Under this type of agreement, the
service-such as representation in court-is provided for a fee
that will only be paid if the case is won and money is awarded.
Most contingency fees are percentages of the award amount.
Occasionally, I am able to provide services to
clients free of charge or for a very low rate.
These decisions are based on the client's
needs, my own level of expertise and
capabilities and the size of my current
caseload. If I am unable to take a case free of
charge for someone in need, I will do my best
to assist them in any way that I can.
to be performed is greater than those performed elsewhere.
