I founded my firm with the goal of offering quality legal services to people and businesses in Central Oregon. I am dedicated to being responsive, efficient and resourceful in addressing the legal needs of my clients and I am committed to maintaining a high level of integrity and accountability for results.

I grew up in Oregon and graduated from the University of Oregon in 1982. I attended law school at the University of Denver and spent two years working at a small general practice firm in Golden, Colorado before returning to Oregon in 1989. I was an associate and then partner at Welch, Bruun and Green in Portland where I spent 12 years specializing in the representation of injured workers and plaintiffs in personal injury and employment discrimination matters. I then was employed for 10 years as House Counsel, Chief Compliance Officer and Executive member with RS Medical, a mid-size durable medical equipment company with a national sales force located in Vancouver, Washington. Prior to opening my own office, I was associated with the law firm of Warren John West, P.C., a personal injury firm located in Bend. I am licensed to practice before all courts in Oregon and Washington.

My experience representing both people and businesses for over 35 years allows me to provide skilled and effective solutions to my client's legal problems and strongly advocate on their behalf.
