Navy Years I was stationed in Norfolk, VA, and travelled to Iceland and along the East Coast for cases as well as acting as an Admiral's staff attorney for a deployment around South America. As a JAG Defense Counsel, I represented officers wound up in the Tailhook scandal.
Family Law On the divorce front, we recently appealed cases concerning a father's liability for child support in the context of imputed income and alimony before the Second District Court of Appeals. We also have numerous scheduled trials involving custody, equitable distribution and child support. Child support modifications, both upward and downward, are also a practice area.
Criminal Cases In the criminal arena, domestic violence cases, DUIs and drug offenses are most prevalent. Other state felonies and other misdemeanors are also handled. Federal cases including one involving slavery which was reported on CNN are also a part of the practice.
Personal Injury Cases The civil side has its primary emphasis on personal injury. A settlement of $450,000 was recently received for three injured clients in a drunk driving case. A wrongful death case was recently settled for a beneficial amount. We also handle a wide variety of commercial, landlord/tenant, collections and fraud cases.
