I am your advocate for fair process, procedures and programs by answering your questions, providing information, making referrals, and helping to clarify policies, procedures, and practices. I will facilitate communications by seeking collaborative problem solving among all stakeholders. I can bring individuals and groups together to open a dialogue about concerns and issues, when you think it's a
good idea. I can serve as a channel for directing your views, opinions, and feedback to management. I will assist you in identifying and evaluating your options for resolving specific concerns and problems, even if I do not become directly involved in the matter. I will resolve problems using a variety of strategies and dispute resolution techniques...
I have been an attorney for nineteen years. I started after graduating from Loyola University of Chicago School of Law as a judicial clerk to Justice Daniel P. Ward of the Illinois Supreme Court. After working as an associate and then partner at a local Joliet firm and then a Chicago-based firm with a Joliet office, I opened my own firm in 2005.
