It is the goal of the attorneys and staff at Thomas Law Group to provide competent, compassionate, and ethical representation of our clients.
Upon graduation from the law school at Ohio State, I worked in Mansfield as an associate attorney. I have been a member of Thomas Law Group since 2008. I work closely with Terry Thomas, Cheryl DeVore, Tamara Zwick, and Nicholas Vesha on various cases including Family Law, Estate Planning & Probate, Bankruptcy, and Business Litigation.
I appear before the Court on a regular basis. I have prepared for and tried cases in Domestic Relations, Juvenile, Bankruptcy, Municipal, Common Pleas, and Federal Courts. I have also successfully argued cases before the Court of Appeals.

In the practice of family law our clients are going through what is often the most difficult experience in their life. It is rewarding to guide them through this challenging time to a positive result.
While there are many great law firms in the Columbus area, we feel that Thomas Law Group provides service on a personal level that other firms may not be able to offer. The experience starts when you contact our office by telephone and are greeted by a live person instead of the voice mail maze we have become accustomed to. Our staff member greets you with "Hello, how may we help you?" The goal of Thomas Law Group is truly to help our clients resolve the legal problem that brought them to our office and to do it in a kind, compassionate, and professional matter, understanding that in many cases the matter that has brought our client to us is very stressful. We are a personal service oriented company. We strive to accommodate your schedule, both before and after normal business hours, to allow clients access to our attorneys and them to feel more involved in the legal process. At least one attorney is always on call, should you assistance after hours.
I enjoy spending time with my family and traveling. My favorite hobby is watching Buckeye football!
Thomas Law Group supports several charities including Operation Buckeye (which sends care packages to troops over seas), Capital Area Humane Society, and American Cancer Society. We provide support directly with monetary contributions and, in addition, host an annual event to solicit funds from others. We are also involved in a recycling program that benefits the Capital Area Humane Society, as well as the environment.

Yes. Our staff provides limited telephone consultations to discuss your matter. This allows us to introduce you to our office and for Thomas Law Group to determine whether the matter you have asked us to review is one in which we can provide legal assis
A retainer is required and a retention agreement must be executed before we can begin to represent you or your business. The retainer amount will vary depending on the matter in which we have been retained to represent you.

Thomas Law Group provides some estate planning services and business formation services at a flat rate. Fees are typically discussed during your initial consultation with our office.
This varies by legal issue. We always try to use the lowest ranked, yet properly qualified individual to perform specific tasks on your behalf in order to keep fees as low as possible.
