In law school, I found a love for business and real estate law. I’ve since devoted my career to helping startups, small business owners, HOAs, landlords, and tenants solve their everyday problems.

I grew up on Shaw Island, Washington. From an early age, I have understood the importance of level-headed problem-solving in the management of small, tight-knit businesses and communities. After working at two law firms, I realized my small-town heart might be better suited for an independent practice. A solo practice allows me the flexibility to give your matters the time and attention they deserve.

I look forward to meeting with you for a consultation regarding the following kinds of issues in Washington State:

• Your small business needs outside general counsel that can provide strategic and adaptable legal support;

• You are an artist or creative with a brand to protect;

• You would like to start a business;

• A tenant refuses to leave or is behind on rent;

• Your lease agreements or business contracts could use an update;

• Your landlord has wrongfully retained your security deposit;

• The unit you are renting has been damaged by forces beyond your control, and your landlord has not made repairs;

• You have been accused of enforcing HOA rules in an unfair way;

• You are unsure of your rights and duties as a landlord, tenant, or HOA member;

You’re an expert at what you do. Let me be the legal expert so you can do more of what you’re great at.
