About Me
White Background Edited 5644_edited_edit

Going through life's hardest moments can make you feel no one understands you, or worse yet, that no one believes you. I believe you, and I will fight for you. 

As a prior Navy Judge Advocate, I was a hospital attorney, a prosecutor, and a command Judge Advocate for multiple military installations and the Navy's premier Strike Fighter Squadrons. I know the local court system as well as the ins and outs of the military system, including alleged offenses and family disputes involving Fort Campbell and other military bases. When I step into the courtroom as your lawyer, I bring that military toughness and winning attitude to your case.

I was also a disability attorney for the Social Security Administration (SSA) prior to opening my own law office. Having worked as an attorney in the decision of over 1,000 appeals cases, I know how to build and win a case in front of a Judge. 

Whether you are going through a divorce, filing for disability, charged with a crime, or are facing separation from the military, you need an advocate who will approach your case without holding anything back. You have my personal guarantee that I will bring all of the above to your case and more. 

                      how I can help. 

SSA Disability, SSDI, and SSI

Note: You do not pay me until you win your case!

We provide personalized legal representation for individuals seeking to appeal denied Social Security Disability benefits. I have extensive experience with the Social Security Administration disability appeals process. Our focus is on guiding you through the complex process and advocating for your rights. 

VA Disability Compensation

Note: You do not pay me until you win your case!

We provide personalized legal representation for individuals seeking to appeal denied Veteran's Affairs (VA) disability compensation. Our focus is on guiding you through the complex process and advocating for your rights.

Court-Martial Defense & Military Law

Divorce & Family Law

Services

We provide personalized legal representation for military servicemembers and civilians on military bases across our armed services. Whether you have been accused of a crime under the UCMJ, are facing disciplinary action (Mast or Article 15), or are facing administrative separation (Chapter Board), I can represent you. I can also represent you if you are a civilian and have been accused of committing a crime on a military base. 

When it comes to resolving family conflicts, things can get complicated. Family relationships are unique and emotionally involved.  I work with Tennessee families and military families to resolve their tough situations, through mediation, negotiation, and skillfully guiding clients towards favorable outcomes in court. I can help with divorce, child custody, juvenile court, paternity, child support, and other legal issues.
