Please describe a case(s) in the last year or two where you made a big difference.. I represented a single mother of a paraplegic 21 year old whose burglary claim was denied by Allstate Insurance. I could tell from my conversations with the client that she had lost hope and I was her last chance. I immediately stepped in and went after Allstate for its deliberate indifference in handling its insured’s claim in a lawful and reasonable manner. Not only was I able to recover the benefits owed under the claim, but I forced Allstate into compensating this deserving client for her emotional distress and pain and suffering. Although I have been involved in more substantial cases, this one hits home for me because I felt that I gave some hope to this person’s life who had endured much stress and grief.. How did you build a successful practice?. By building a strong relationship with your clients and keeping them informed at all times about their cases, no matter how big or small their case is. Too often unfortunately, professionals have a habit of not responding to their clients or simply not caring about their case. With me it’s different. Every one of my client’s cases is a priority for me and I strive on being responsive and keeping them informed at all stages.. What should clients look for in a lawyer?. Obviously, track record and credentials are important but I do not think they should be the determining factor. I think the most important thing is for the client to find a lawyer who truly cares about them and their case and will do anything in their power to fight for them.. How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases? It plays an important part to some degree.. What information can you provide in a free phone consultation? Whether they have a viable case, the weakness in their position, the potential value of their case, advice on what to do and what to refrain from doing, etc.. What information do you need in a free phone consultation? The basics.. What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community? Ability, trust, reputation and results. What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?. Helping clients who can’t find the battle on their own.. What are your other interests in addition to law?. I love music, sports (huge Lakers fan) and traveling with my wife.. *Due to legal jurisdiction restrictions, we are not able to represent individuals injured on sovereign tribal land, including casinos or similar properties.
