I work for you. I listen to you, work with your specific situation and talk to your family members and closed ones. Being involved in a legal case is stressful. You need an equal amount of skill, experience and humanity. I treat you like the human being that you are. I thoroughly research and investigate the facts of your case. As appropriate, I consult with forensic experts investigators to understand the total picture. It is only by having the total picture of you and your case, that I can best advice you and defend you. Every human being is different and you need an attorney who will see that difference in you.

History
I began my career working at the civil rights firm Minami, Lew & Tamaki being mentored by Garrick Lew, I opened my own practice in 2006. I provide the same dedication to all my clients. Staying ahead of the law’s frequent changes is extremely important. That’s why I am constantly attending conferences, trainings and consulting with experts. Because legal work is very demanding. I take a conscious approach to making sure I’m prepared and present. I practice yoga and meditation: two activities that are essential for me to give my clients my full attention in a calm and non-judgmental manner.
