My twenty years as an attorney have provided me a breadth of experience, beginning with commercial litigation, broadening into a range of business transactional and consulting services. Licensed in Colorado since 1999, I am pleased to now make Naples home and extend my services to a Florida clientele.
While associated with my firm in Denver, Colorado I represented a range of clients, including real estate developers, landowners, ranchers, and families with their various legal needs, real estate transactions, forming businesses, and estate planning and probate. I was involved in many trials, including a three-week construction case. Other cases I handled involved landowner boundary disputes and partnership accountings.
As outside general counsel for my corporate clients, I have provided an array of services including document drafting for loan transactions, contracts for independent contractors, handling vendor disputes, employment issues, assessing insurance coverage, developing compliance materials, reviewing employee handbooks and serving as point person with human resources, acting as liaison between the client and out-of-state litigation counsel, and coordinating with experts in various fields when needed.
Whether you have been in business many years or are considering starting a company, I offer a diverse assortment of services to assist you with your personal or business matters, including selecting the appropriate business entity, maintaining solid corporate documentation and developing in-house handbooks and training and compliance (including international export) materials, and on the personal side, consumer and real estate transactions and estate planning.
I am a member of the Collier County Bar Association, Florida Association for Women Lawyers, and Collier County Women's Bar Association. On the civic side, I am an involved member of my church and a SAC board member. I value our community and all it has to offer in terms of its people and beautiful environment. My varied legal experience and well-rounded life allow me to consider all avenues and personalize my services to your specific legal needs. I would love to talk further to discuss how I may give personal attention to your legal needs. And, by the way, my firm has taken the Blue Zones Project Pledge because resolving legal issues and maintaining legal compliance are just another part of a healthy life.
