I am here for Friends

About Me

"The demands of justice must be satisfied first of all; that which is already due in justice is not to be offered as a gift of charity" – Saint John Chrysostom, d.407

I believe that access to legal representation and justice should not depend on your income, so I opened my own little law office and charge folks based on what they can afford. Its not a glamorous lawyer life, but I can sleep at night and so far can pay most of my bills.I'm originally from the midwest, lived in Chicago for awhile, now in Maryland. I have a fabulous family that keeps me on my toes and tolerates my pro bono habits.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Peaceful, open minded, free thinking cool & interesting people.______________________
