BIOGRAPHY
Before going back to law school in his early 30s, Drew was a teacher for several years at Skyline Center, a large, urban public high school in Dallas, Texas. At Skyline, Drew taught English and coached the Academic Decathlon team and was nominated for Teacher of the Year multiple times. As a teacher, Drew learned that people learn, think, and process information in a variety of ways, and he adapted his teaching style to meet the needs of each individual student. Drew uses that same approach in guiding his clients through the legal issues confronting them. As an advocate, Drew not only draws on his teaching background, but he also draws on his experience as a professional writer and as a seasoned public speaker to champion his clients’ positions in contested family law and probate matters and to provide guidance to his estate planning clients in Prescott, AZ and throughout the state.
