"I have become an attorney with a single purpose: To serve those who have been wronged. To fight for those who do not have the financial means or know-how to seek justice from those who harmed them, and to 'Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves, for the rights of all who are destitute and to defend the rights of the poor and needy'. [Proverbs 31:8-9] This purpose is in the forefront of all my thoughts and guides my every action"
