Offit Kurman Attorneys At Law is more than just a Mid-Atlantic law firm. Our strategic proactive approach makes us your perfect legal partner.

Throughout my career, my entrepreneurial spirit, natural curiosity and commitment to being of service to others have allowed me to grow an extensive network of experts, thought leaders and individuals with the drive and knowledge needed to strengthen both business and community. Today at Offit Kurman, I’m a part of a team of legal subject matter experts who lend their insight and experience to help business owners, entrepreneurs and others throughout the mid-Atlantic protect and grow their corporate and personal assets. WHAT I BELIEVE I believe the most important question I can ask is, “What do you need?” and the most valuable action I can take is to respond to that need with an introduction, a resource, an expert or a suggestion. WHAT DRIVES ME Facilitating thoughtful and meaningful connections that result in new opportunities for individuals and businesses is what drives me. Whether I’m making a personal introduction or connecting someone to the right resource, nothing gives me more satisfaction than witnessing the positive and often far-reaching possibilities that always arise when a new door opens.
