Outside of Work

Outside of the office, you can find Dick cheering on his favorite sports teams, the Carolina Panthers and the Charlotte 49ers. An avid runner, his weekends are often filled with races or long runs. When he’s not running, he’s spending time with his German Shepherd Norm or exploring local breweries.

No two clients are alike, and neither are the legal challenges they face. Armed with both a law degree and MBA, I aim to deeply understand the unique needs of each client to pursue an outcome that successfully meets their individual business needs. Through collaboration, consistent communication, and reliable advice, I build a relationship rooted in trust to guide my clients through whatever situation they find themselves in. My clients rely on me to be honest and direct, but above all else, the zealous advocate they deserve.
