Ligonier, Pennsylvania, Law Firm
In practice on my own at my office in Ligonier, I have spent ten years honing my skills to represent the citizens of Westmoreland County and the surrounding areas in two significant areas of the law: criminal defense, for all criminal charges, including DUI and drug charges, and estate planning
Criminal Law
While in law school in 1991, I worked with a city prosecutor's office where I learned how criminal procedure works. I now use the lessons I learned there to ensure that the constitutional rights of my criminal defendant clients are protected.
My Philosophy of Criminal Law and Procedure
I sincerely believe in the guarantee of the United States Constitution: You are presumed innocent under the law unless proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt and convicted by a jury of your peers. That means that if I am not able to negotiate a feasible plea bargain that protects your rights and keeps you out of jail, I am committed to pursuing your rights to a jury or bench trial, if we decide together that a trial is the best option.
My Estate Planning Philosophy
Over the years that I have been in practice, I have developed a deliberate attitude towards estate planning: All adult Pennsylvanians, no matter the size of their estates, should have the estate planning documents needed to protect the interests of their loved ones. Too often, when family members become elderly or disabled and are no longer able to conduct their affairs, or they pass away, the bereaved family is left without the direction they need to follow their loved ones' wishes. If you have been putting off having documents drafted, including living wills and powers of attorney, or a trust established, don't procrastinate any longer. Contact my office.
Plans Made Today Save Uncertainty for Loved Ones Tomorrow
Even simple estate planning can be cost effective. I believe you will be glad that you have taken care of this obligation to your family, friends, and associates. Because you have fulfilled this responsibility to your loved ones, they will be relieved of some of the confusion and legal hassles that other families face when they lose a loved one who has not planned for the future.
