Biography

I graduated from Gonzaga University School of Law in 1979 and practiced law for a year before attending the University of Denver School of Law, where I earned a Master's in Tax Law in 1981. Immediately after graduating, I worked as a tax lawyer for Touche Ross in Denver, Colorado. In 1983, a client invited me to join his real estate company as in-house counsel, and I later started my own firm. Remarkably, I have been practicing law for over 40 years, which is hard to believe, even for me.

Whether it's a bankruptcy case of legal malpractice case, I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve the results they deserve.

Q. 85 member that is looking for pricing for a civil service. We are the old customer's of holy ground real estate
A: First, it is unfortunate that people like this debtor rip consumers off. I had a sinilar case where the homebuilder stole my client's money and went to prison. Regarding Holy Ground, I doubt that your contract with Mr. Sowash included his personal guarantee. We need to check. Second, if he personally filed for bankruptcy we can file a complaint objecting to his bankruptcy. If he did not file bankruptcy, I see no reason why you cannot sue him individually in state court.
