As an attorney deeply connected to the Shreveport/Bossier community, I have the privilege of serving the area I've called home since childhood. This strong bond with the community allows me to understand its customs and the people on a personal level. In addition to my local roots, I bring years of legal knowledge and experience to my practice. I earned my Juris Doctorate from LSU Law School in Baton Rouge in 1990, following a Bachelor's degree from SMU in Dallas. I am a member of:

• Louisiana State Bar Association

• Shreveport Bar Association

• Bossier Bar Association

I am licensed to practice law in all Louisiana state and federal courts. With over three decades of legal practice, I have handled a wide variety of cases that address practical issues in ways that are personal to my clients.

While I have primarily worked on cases in Caddo, Bossier, Webster, DeSoto, Red River, Sabine, Lincoln, and Ouachita, I have also extended my practice to other parishes, and can do so if necessary to help clients.

It brings me deep satisfaction to help individuals with matters that are important to them, particularly during challenging times. When you entrust me with your case, you can rest assured that I will give it my personal attention and work tirelessly to achieve the best possible outcome for you.

I encourage you to reach out to me to discuss your case. I am here to assist you every step of the way.
