    Equipped with a Certificate in Paralegal Studies from Pace University, I am also award-winning author and reporter with more than 20 years of experience in print journalism. As such, I now work with attorneys and other clients on a vast array of writing, editing and related projects. I worked in the New York City suburbs for more than a decade and documented the community's reaction to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, as a reporter in Rye, N.Y. During my eight-year tenure with a Virginia newspaper, I earned the trust and respect of high-ranking officials while covering controversial and complex topics including a courthouse shooting that made national news in 2009. Independent judges in statewide contests have recognized my standing as a preeminent journalist by presenting me with 10 Virginia Press Association awards and one New York Press Association award for my work in numerous categories. I have also received national and regional recognition for my memoir, "Truth Be Told: Adam Becomes Audrey."

    I graduated from UCLA School of Law in 2000. Since that time, I have worked for various firms, before opening my own firm in 2006. My main area of practice since that time has been appellate work. I have been to the Connecticut Appellate Court and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals approximately 50 times over the past 15 years. I am very good at legal research, and my writing skills are excellent. I have practiced both civil and criminal litigation, and I can write any brief or motion that is needed. I can also help with Medicaid/Title 19 applications.
