Certified Criminal Law Specialist
This lawyer is licensed to practice in California and has no record of discipline from the California bar association. *
I am a Certified Specialist in Criminal Law handling complex habeas capital litigation and capital trial work and other serious felonies and misdemeanors. (DUI)
I also represent and advise criminally charged clients who are collaterally involved in administrative proceedings re DMV License suspension hearings, Fish and Game license revocations and professional licensing board sanctions (doctors, dentists, attorneys).
I was appointed by the California Supreme Court in 1993 as habeas counsel in a capital appeal which is ongoing. Currently I am practicing criminal law in Santa Barbara County, with emphasis on serious felony representation including assisting the Santa Barbara County Public Defender's Office as Keenan counsel on 2 separate capital murder cases and most recently was privately retained in two capital cases, one through the grand jury indictment and an LWOP case through trial.

I chose criminal law because that is the one area where all of our constitutional rights are defined.
I believe in fully and candidly discussing all aspects of a client's case including the consequences of selecting different options as whether to go to trial, plea bargain, etc.
Absolutely. I insist that the clients prepare a narrative of what happened.
Depending upon the facts and circumstances of each individual case, the answer is yes.
