  • About me
  • I practiced primarily consumer bankruptcy law for 12 years and now act as both the President of Total Attorneys, Inc., a technology enabled service provider to over 1500 law firms across the country, as well the President of the Total Practice Management Association. Through the association my goal is to share my experiences in both running small and large firms as well as help lawyers realize more success and personal fulfillment in their lives. Balance can be difficult to achieve and I recognize that as well as anyone. I work very hard to find the right balance between my time at work and my time at home with my awesome wife, 2 kids, 2 dogs, a snake and a frog.
