I practice law because people experiencing life-altering harm deserve to find protection, answers, and meaning.. My clients include:. ·         People who have been physically injured from negligence or medical malpractice;. ·         Families of loved ones who have been killed from negligence or medical malpractice;. ·         Individuals whose employers have illegally discriminated or retaliated against them;. ·         People who have been wrongfully convicted or victimized by police or other government actors; and. ·         Business owners and investors whose livelihood has been harmed by other individuals or companies, or even their own partners.. I have tried cases to jury verdicts in various counties in Ohio, including a verdict that was one of the top 3 highest jury verdicts in the jurisdiction that year.  I have also successfully represented clients in appeals and arbitrations.. I live in Columbus with my wife Kate and our three children Ben, Sam, and Eliza.  In my spare time, I enjoy golf, theater, and obstacle course runs.
