What types of clients do you represent?

I represent a variety of clients from individuals to small, mid-sized, and large businesses in various civil litigation matters. My work on labor and employment matters includes defending employers against claims involving employment laws such as Title VII, ADA, ADEA, and FMLA.
What do you find most exciting about your work?

Before joining Balch, I clerked for the Honorable Michael T. Parker in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi. That experience offered significant insight into judicial decision-making throughout the litigation process, particularly in federal court.
