“After twenty plus years handling civil, criminal, and administrative cases in various tribunals, I believe I have the experience, temperament and expertise to serve the citizens of Schuylkill County well. I always have practiced law with respect and integrity and promise to approach each case fairly and impartially, free from political influence and in accordance with the federal and state constitutions. Schuylkill County has had and continues to have an outstanding bench to which I hope to contribute. With Judge Dolbin’s decision not to seek retention, I feel this is a tremendous opportunity to continue to serve the public.”
