I have been practicing law since 1999. After graduating from Miami of Ohio University, I attended the Brandeis School of Law at the University of Louisville. I had been practicing law for a large law firm since 2001. In my time at the large law firm, I learned the value of a close relationship with clients. In order to protect a client, you need to work with them to head off problems in the future along with helping them resolve present issues. I had worked with numerous large corporations in my years of legal experience. I had argued and won cases before the Kentucky Supreme Court, but I wanted to grow my practice into other areas that allowed me to work with people on a more one-one-one basis.
As a father of three children, namely, James Owen, John Dixon, and June Mills, I value family most of all. My wife, Joy Robyn Fenwick, is the owner of Omar + Elsie which is a clothing and shoe store in Lexington, KY. As a former Louisvillian who has been transplanted to Lexington, KY, I have grown to love the town and the people here. After years of corporate practice, I wanted to develop a practice that allowed me to help people outside of a constant antagonistic environment. I had learned estate planning, wills, and trust work in my years of practice as an offshoot of business succession planning. As the work kept growing and I grew older and “wiser”, I grew to love this field of work. I decided to focus on those cases over the last five years. As the work grew along with my desire to focus on it, the move from a large corporate law firm to a solo practice appeared to be the right move.
The practice was started in 2013, and I opened my current office at 330 Romany Road, Ste. A, Lexington, KY 40502 in 2016. It is my pleasure to help people of all ages to protect against their families and themselves with proper planning. I enjoy working with young families as they grow along with older individuals in helping to protect assets for future generations.
In my spare time, I help coach my two oldest sons baseball teams at Eastern Little League in Lexington, KY along with various other soccer and basketball teams over numerous years at the YMCA. I am also involved in the Mentor program at Breckinridge Elementary where I work with a first grader on a weekly basis. The outside activities certainly keep me grounded.
