- Criminal DefenseAll actions have consequences; none is more serious than the death of an innocent person. Criminal law provides punishment for those guilty of intentionally causing another’s death.
- DUI/DWIPunitive damages (in cases where the bad choices are especially reckless and wanton (like drunk driving wrecks).
- Wrongful DeathEvents that we call “accidents†are often actually someone’s fault. Innocent victims of other people’s carelessness or recklessness can find themselves left with serious and costly personal injuries and other losses. In the most tragic scenarios, families lose a loved one in a wrongful death.

- Personal InjuryEvents that we call “accidents†are often actually someone’s fault. When someone suffers pain and loss because of another person’s negligence, the victim deserves to be compensated for the costs and pain they have suffered through no fault of their own. The main causes of personal injury are (a) the negligence of another party; (b) faulty equipment; and (c) unforeseen circumstances or events.

- Power of AttorneyI was injured by a car while crossing the street, and the driver had minimal insurance. Julie was able to make sure that not only were my medical bills paid, but that I received compensation as well. If I had not hired her, I would still have a stack of unpaid bills. She is very personable–she brought me homemade chili while I was homebound, came to my house for consultations, and even deposited my check for me. I liked her so much I went back for a will, power of attorney, and living will, and she did an excellent job and gave me a great break on the cost. Her paralegal, Cynthia Duffy, did a great job as well, and was on the phone daily with the insurance companies and medical providers to make sure my case was settled as quickly as possible Kudos to a great team!
