Attorney at Law · Georgia & Washington

Every case begins with one real question:
what do you want out of this?

I serve all of Georgia, metro Atlanta to Savannah (my hometown), and Washington State. Clear answers, flat fees, and honesty about where you stand, even when that means you don't need me.

What I handle

Full-service for real life and real businesses.

From a single demand letter to ongoing counsel. The defined work below moves quickly; the deeper matters get the time they deserve.

I

Demand Letters & Disputes

Insurance claims, debt and collection defense, and pre-suit demands. A well-aimed letter often resolves it before anyone files.

Flat fee · fast turnaround
II

Estate Planning & Probate

Wills, revocable living trusts, powers of attorney, and probate, plus elder care planning that protects a lifetime of savings from the cost of long-term care.

Flat-fee packages
III

Real Estate

Closings, leasing and tenant matters, deed transfers, property tax appeals, HOA and boundary disputes.

Flat fee · per matter
IV

Business & Contracts

Contract review and drafting, franchise documents, entity formation, and ongoing general counsel for small companies.

Flat fee or retainer
V

Intellectual Property

Trademark clearance, registration, and enforcement; copyright protection; and IP licensing and trade-secret agreements. Patent prosecution is referred to a registered patent attorney.

Flat fee · trademark filings
VI

Employment & Workplace Rights

Separation agreements, FMLA and leave issues, pregnancy discrimination, and retaliation. We've lived this one personally.

Consultation · case review
VII

Family & Guardianship

Custody and visitation, adoption and legitimation, guardianship and conservatorship — handled with care instead of theatrics.

Flat fee where possible
VIII

Consumer Protection

Deceptive practices, warranty and lemon-law claims, debt-collection and credit-reporting disputes, and unfair business conduct.

IX

Bankruptcy & Debt Relief

A clear-eyed look at whether bankruptcy is the right tool: Chapter 7 and 13 guidance and debt negotiation, with no judgment.

Consultation · flat fee
X

Education & Student Rights

Special-education plans (IEPs and 504s), FERPA records and privacy, student discipline and Title IX, and disputes with school districts. I stand with families.

Consultation · case review
Why this firm exists

People deserve to be heard. Actually heard.

ALM Legal was founded on a hard-won conviction: too often, large institutions treat people — and the lifelines their families depend on — as line items to be bartered away. But ethical leadership was never a math problem. This firm exists to put the human face back on the other side of the ledger — to meet every client with the same first question, to take on the matters others find too small to bother with, and to fight hard without ever mistaking volume for strength. However complex things get, the real victory is refusing to let the noise strip away your humanity, your grace, or your hold on the truth.

No matter is too small to take seriously, and no opponent too large to take on. Whatever you're up against, we don't back down.

How it works

No mystery: here is exactly what happens from your first message to resolution, and I’m the one doing it at every step.

I

Answer a few quick questions below. In minutes you will know whether your matter is a strong fit, worth a conversation, or something we cannot help with.

II

Consultation

If it is a fit, we talk it through. You get a straight read on your options — and an honest answer if you do not have a case.

III

Engagement & flat fee

Before any work begins, you receive the scope and the price in writing. Flat fee wherever the work allows, so there are no surprises.

IV

Drafting, filing, negotiating — handled by one attorney who knows your file, with clear updates at every step.

A defined finish line and a record you can stand behind. You will always know exactly where things stand.

About the founder

Built at the intersection of law, contracts, and technology.

I spent two decades in contracts and technology at The Coca-Cola Company, Gulfstream Aerospace, and Microsoft, where I designed apps and led the way on generative-AI features, integrating Copilot into its products. I added a J.D., a Georgia Tech master’s in computer science, and an MBA because the work kept crossing law, technology, and business, and I wanted all three.

ALM Legal is where all of it goes to work for you.
