He has been successful securing handicapped accessible housing and transportation for his clients when the insurance companies denied those rights to his clients.  He also has extensive experience representing those with Chronic Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS) or Reflex Sympathetic Disorder (RSD) and knows how to get clients specialized medical treatment for such clients. Some of those are cutting edge treatments many physicians don't provide and most insurance companies routinely deny.  John has fought big insurance companies and successfully obtained these treatments for CRPS patients for 22 years.  If you have a injury that develops into CRPS or RSD, John can assist you in obtaining medical treatment which has a fighting chance of alleviating the problems you experience and making your life more livable.  You can find out more information about this disease at .
