“Trials are about persuasion, whether trying a case to the judge or a jury. What makes persuasion more effective? In my case, after over ten years of trial work as an Assistant United States Attorney I’m able to translate complex material into simpler and more understandable arguments. And when that skill is combined with my knack for connecting with people, it leads to superior results.”
