“I was a prosecutor in a couple different counties before I came here. I've worked in Arapaho, Pueblo, and El Paso County. And you see a lot of things where defense attorneys say oh, I was a prosecutor so I can represent you better because I know the ins and out. I have that background, but that's not what I'm about.”
“a lot of people just see the individuals that come in to court as a case file. They don't see them as human, and they don't understand that there's a whole lot that goes into people ending up in the court room.”
“For example, you have people who've been overseas. I have a lot of clients who have come to me who served in the U.S. military in some capacity. A lot of people come back with untreated PTSD. A lot of them don't even have a diagnosis for that. And then those issues that they have result in other things happening. So that can cause people to drink more, people to have responses that they normally wouldn't have.”
“The reason I came to be a defense attorney is because I saw so many people struggling through the system without any help, without any idea of what was going on. Or they were just stuck in this endless circle of you get a public defender, you're stuck in jail, you don't have anyone to talk to.”
“this is just someone who did something any of us could have done and they got caught, and this is what we need to do to rectify the situation.”
“I firmly believe that you get more flies with honey than vinegar. I'm southern, that's just kinda how my viewpoint is. But you go in and you go in just guns blazing being a jerk, you're not gonna get as much. So my approach is I go in and I talk to people. I'm connecting my client who is a person with the DA who is a person.”
“I take on people who, if they've been a victim of domestic violence, a lot of victims of domestic violence are actually improperly charged, and they're charged as the perpetrator. But what happens is the criminal justice system isn't set up to thoroughly dig into these cases and see what's going on.”

“I have a lot of clients who have come to me who served in the U.S. military in some capacity. A lot of people come back with untreated PTSD. A lot of them don't even have a diagnosis for that.”
“a lot of victims of domestic violence are actually improperly charged, and they're charged as the perpetrator.”
“What I'm about is taking a different approach to the law.”
“the bigger thing that I think is important is to focus on why you've gotten to this point.”
“my job is to dig in and try to get to know my clients as a person and then deal with their legal issues.”
“I'm not that bull dog. I'm not gonna go in and just say that everyone's wrong and everyone's doing everything wrong, because I've tried to really respect my colleagues in this community.”
