Spanish-Speaking Attorneys

I believe that every client deserves strong advocacy, clear guidance, and a legal strategy tailored to their unique situation. Whether you’re seeking justice after an injury, navigating a complex family matter, or defending yourself against criminal charges, I am here to fight for you. I am a seasoned trial attorney with extensive experience as an Assistant District Attorney and a proven track record in jury trials. This background has equipped me with an in-depth understanding of courtroom dynamics and the strategic insight necessary to navigate complex legal challenges. I earned my J.D. from the University of North Carolina School of Law in 2022. Before that, I graduated with a B.S. in Business-Finance from UNC-Wilmington in 2019 with the distinction of magna cum laude.
