Uncontested Divorce - Criminal Defense - Appeals and Motions

Some legal disciplines I can assist you with include:

  • Uncontested divorce: Divorcing parties can save valuable time and money by working on their own and coming to mutually-beneficial agreements pertaining to parenting plans (including child custody and visitation), child support, marital asset division and spousal support. I will assist you with properly completing and filing Missouri divorce forms and handling other legal requirements.
  • Family law appeals: If you received an unjust verdict in family court, I can skillfully handle an appeal of that decision.
  • Traffic offenses: I help clients with a wide range of traffic violations, including speeding tickets and driving without a license. Many traffic cases can be resolved without the need for the client to make a court appearance.
  • Criminal defense: As a former Missouri State Public Defender, I am extremely experienced navigating the criminal court system and have established working relationships with judges and prosecutors. I aggressively defend clients against felony and misdemeanor criminal charges, including DUI, theft, assault and drug crimes.
  • Post-conviction motions and appeals: When you have been wrongly convicted of a crime, I can protect your rights by challenging the merits of your original trial.

Understanding Your Financial Concerns and Providing Cost-Effective Solutions

I know that your legal problems aren't your only concerns. I know that you also have to worry about protecting your bottom line. That is why I work hard to provide you with an exceptional value for your money and I offer flexible, cost-efficient solutions. I charge on a flat-fee basis for my legal services and offer payment plans.
