My focus

As a seasoned commercial litigation attorney, I possess a robust skill set to represent clients across all litigation stages. My extensive experience is grounded in a successful track record of advocating for businesses in both federal and state courts, achieving favorable outcomes before judges and juries alike. I am also adept at guiding clients through alternative dispute resolution processes, including arbitration and mediation.

My practice is diverse, with a particular focus on business-to-business litigation. I bring a wealth of experience to the table in handling breach of contract cases, fraud, and a variety of other business disputes. This includes navigating the complexities of business separations and the enforcement of restrictive covenants such as non-compete and non-disclosure agreements. In addition, I am proficient in managing employment-related matters under the California Private Attorneys General Act (PAGA), as well as issues pertaining to harassment, discrimination, retaliation, and wage and hour claims. My role extends to advising and counseling businesses to ensure compliance with both California and federal employment statutes. My comprehensive understanding of litigation allows me to steer clients through the legal process with strategic acumen, instilling confidence in their legal decisions. My courtroom successes are a testament to my commitment to securing favorable verdicts, awards, and judgments for my clients.
