People charged with crimes—especially those charged in federal courts and those whose cases involve activity that is criminal under both state and federal law—are facing a complex legal situation. Federal laws and sentencing guidelines change quickly, and state and federal prosecutors do coordinate their cases to obtain the maximum penalty. I am a member of a number of organizations dedicated to protecting the rights of those charged with crimes, and I stay informed on the many changes in the law.
As a criminal defense lawyer, I have been an advocate on behalf of the people I represent inside and outside the courtroom. As a member of the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers and the Missouri Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, I have lobbied the Missouri Legislature and United States Congress for laws protecting the civil rights of all Americans and laws favorable to those charged with crimes. Among my qualifications:
- Able to represent clients in the United States District Courts for the Districts of Kansas, Western District of Missouri, and Eastern District of Missouri
