Crone.  I was also an Articles Editor for the South Texas Law Review, an advocate for South Texas’ nationally ranked moot court team, and served as a Langdell Scholar for Torts I and Constitutional Law.. After law school, I moved back to Southeast Texas and worked as a defense lawyer for Orgain, Bell, & Tucker LLP in Beaumont.  Although it was great experience, I quickly realized that representing insurance companies and insurance adjusters did not provide me with the personal fulfillment I desired.  As a result, I joined Bernsen Law FIrm to pursue his true passion of representing individuals who have been wrongfully injured or harmed through no fault of their own.. Since joining Bernsen Law Firm, I have given all I can to seek full compensation for each of our clients.  I have tried numerous jury trials to verdict and plan to continue fighting for each client's rights.

I firmly believe that the best lawyers are those that maintain open lines of communicaiton with their clients.  Whether it is a criminal case or personal injury lawsuit, most clients have little experience in the court system.  An attorney who takes the time to explain what is happening, both good and bad, is a must.  I make myself available by phone, email, or in person.

I am a native of Southeast Texas.  I went to Lamar University for my undergraduate degree in communications and I went to the University of Tulsa lawschool.  My wife and I have been involved in youth sports and church related youth programs for the past twenty years.

After attending Lamar University and obtaining a degree in Criminal Justice, I worked as a paralegal for two years. In doing that work, I discovered a passion for the law and a talent for connecting with people and helping them navigate through legal issues. Taking three years off work to attend law school full-time was not an option for me, so I continued working full-time during the day and attended law school in the evenings at South Texas College of Law in Houston. I graduated law school in 2004 and was hired immediately by a small Beaumont firm whose primary practice area was personal injury defense. I remained with the firm for almost 7 years, eventually branching out to open my own practice focusing primarily on family law. I enjoy the challenges family law brings, but more than that, I enjoy helping my clients navigate through difficult times and giving them the peace of mind of knowing that we will get through whatever transition they are facing together. I welcome the opportunity to meet with you and discuss options for assisting you with your legal issues.
