Tell me about your deal
Send the form below or call the office. Your first consultation costs nothing, and you will be speaking with the attorney who would handle the matter, not an intake screener.
Get In Touch
Three ways to reach the office
Whichever route you choose, it reaches the attorney. There is no intake team standing between you and a real conversation about your matter.
Call the office
The fastest option, and often the most useful, because five minutes of conversation usually replaces a long email thread.
Send the consultation form
Use the form on this page. It comes directly to me. Include any deadline you are working against, such as a contingency expiration or a closing date, and it will be prioritized accordingly.

San Diego County
Local counsel, on the ground where you do business
My office sits at 2366 Front Street in downtown San Diego, minutes from the county recorder, the courts, and most of the lenders and title companies my clients use. That proximity is not a marketing line. It means documents get signed, recorded, and closed without a week of shipping delays.
