With over 30 years of experience, he’s seen the legal system from every possible angle—as a state prosecutor, a federal prosecutor, and a fierce advocate for the accused.

Doug has handled everything from high-stakes federal crimes to complex murder trials, earning the trust of politicians, generals, and everyday citizens alike. He’s especially proud to be the "go-to" lawyer for law enforcement officers; when the people who work in the courthouse every day need help, they call Doug. His tenacity comes from a distinguished 30-year military career, where he served as a Special Forces Colonel with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan. This mission-focused approach is exactly what he brings to the courtroom. Whether he’s defending a service member’s career or fighting a powerful interest in a civil suit, Doug is an unrelenting force. Outside the office, he remains deeply connected to the veteran community, often found guiding fly-fishing trips for fellow soldiers. When your future is on the line, you want a battle-tested leader like Doug in your corner.
