Representing individuals, families, and trial law primarily defines me. My varied complex caseload and travel energizes and challenges me on a daily basis. I have been extremely fortunate to come from the small state of Vermont to travelling the world representing individuals in their struggles against large corporations and insurance companies. With the help of juries and the legal system, over the decades, I have been able to help right many egregious wrongs. Much of the credit for where I am professionally rests with my two wonderful parents, Lee and Judy. They imparted me with the pursuit of education, ethics, drive, fight and passion that has led to a track record of success.
