Practice Areas

Disputes between people and businesses can escalate quickly. We work to resolve them efficiently — at the negotiating table where possible, and in the courtroom when necessary.

• General Litigation

  Representation in disputes between individuals or businesses, including property issues, professional liability, and other civil claims in Ohio courts.

  Enforcing or defending against claims arising from business agreements, leases, and service contracts.

• Landlord / Tenant

  Evictions, lease disputes, security-deposit claims, and habitability issues, for both property owners and renters.

A criminal charge threatens your freedom, your record, and your livelihood. You are entitled to a vigorous defense, and to an attorney who will make sure your rights are protected at every stage.

• Aggravated Felonies

  Defense against the most serious state and federal charges, from investigation through trial and, where needed, appeal.
