When you hire us to take on your case, you can get the peace of mind you need, knowing that a team of professionals is working to obtain the best possible outcome for your case. Personally, I spent several years representing insurance companies before, I realized that I was more interested in helping injured workers who deserved to be compensated for their injuries.

I have handled all manner of criminal cases from traffic offenses all the way to major drug charges and violent crimes. At the end of the day, each case is an opportunity for me to lend my legal expertise, experience, and skills to people who are not able to protect themselves inside a legal system that is complex and full of obstacles. I truly enjoy being able to help someone through their lowest points and help restore them to a normal life. Please call me to discuss your case today. All initial consultations are free!

I have practiced law for almost 20 years although it does not seem that long.  I have chosen my practice areas in indigent criminal defense, education law, and now workers' compensation because all have allowed me to work for an individual.  I enjoy the connection with a live person for whom I can advocate.  I like to get to know the person I respresent.  My clients are more than mere case numbers.  I am more effective if I can empathize with and understand the individuals for whom I argue.. Becoming a lawyer was never the ultimate goal.  It has always been a means to an end. It is a way in which I can use my expertise to help people maneuver their way through an otherwise confusing and complicated legal system in order to invoke rights or request redress.. I spend my spare time with my husband and two energetic sons.  We enjoy travelling the world together and exploring new places, but in many ways, every day is an adventure.  There are very few dull moments in my life, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

I have dedicated my practice to helping injured workers.  I am all workers' compensation, all of the time.  Hiring me means you are hiring a workers' compensation specialist.  I have been recognized by my peers as an expert in my field as evidenced by my selection as a Rising Star Superlawyer in Atlanta Magazine in 2006, 2009 and 2010.

I have dedicated my entire career to injury law in the State of Georgia.  I spent the first half of my career defending claims for the insurance companies and the second half of my career representing injured Georgians, primarily those injured at work.  Needless to say, the later half of my career has been far more rewarding.  In that effort, I represent English, Portuguese, and Spanish speaking Georgians.  Feel free to call for a free consultation or to have your questions answered.
