When you are working through the legal system, you need an experienced lawyer who can guide you through each step of the process. You need someone who knows the process and who will take the time to understand your concerns and goals. You need a Providence family law attorney who views you as a person with a problem, not a billable opportunity for the firm.

I am a former Rhode Island Special Assistant Attorney General from 1993-1997. During those years I prosecuted hundreds of criminal cases ranging from disorderly conduct to first degree murder in every Rhode Island County. Additionally, along with other prosecutors, I lectured in-coming police academy cadets on proper drunk driving and Rhode Island DUI investigations and prosecutions.
