Professional Background
I am the rare advertising lawyer that grew up as a litigator. As such, I see my job as allowing you to sell your story while ensuring that you remain legally compliant.
I regularly serve as outside advertising counsel for emerging companies—advising my clients on how to make powerful claims about their products or services. I pride myself on getting businesses where they want to go.
In addition to my advertising work, I regularly represent consumer-facing companies in high-stakes litigation regarding consumer protection issues, including false advertising disputes and class actions.
