I have been a practicing attorney for over eleven years. I accept a wide variety of cases. I have significant trial experience in both criminal and civil matters and practice in federal as well as state courts.
I live in the City of Lockport, New York with my wife Stacey. Stacey works as a physician assistant for a hospitalist group. We have a shepard-mix dog named Lana who usually comes to the office with me. When you come for an appointment, expect to be greeted by Lana at the door. If you do not like dogs, let me know ahead of time and I will make sure she is not at the office for our appointment.
My hobbies include reading history and travel. I currently taking flying lessons. I fly a Cessna Cardinal that is kept at Royalton Airport. I have soloed and expect to go for my "check ride" to become a private pilot in August.

REAL ESTATE
I help clients buy and sell commercial and residential real estate. When you decide to buy or sell property, it is important to consult an attorney as early as possible. Often, the most important part of any deal is negotiating the purchase contract. If you are using a real estate agent, the agent will help you prepare the purchase contract. However, your attorney has three business days to look the contact over and cancel it if it does not protect your rights. If you are not using a real estate agent, an attorney can prepare the agreement for you.
Once I am hired to represent a client, a real estate transaction, I review the purchase contract with the client. If everything looks fair, I approve the contract. If something in the contract is unfair, I talk the issue over with my client. If the client agrees, I will either cancel the contract or negotiate with the other side to make the contract fair. After the contract has been approved, I make sure all the title issues are resolved and get the deal ready to close. I then review all the documents to make sure they are correct. Then, either my paralegal or I will attend the closing with you.
I charge a $500.00 flat fee for residential real estate closings. I charge an hourly rate of $200.00 for commercial real estate transactions. There is also a $25.00 miscellaneous disbursement fee to cover copies, faxes, postage, etc. This includes reviewing and approving the contract, resolving all title issues, prepare or review all closing papers, and attending the closing. There is a extra fee for preparing the contract, preparing the extra agreements and attending closings outside of Niagara County.
