After graduating magna cum laude from college, I became a claims adjuster working for insurance companies for 10 years. That experience gave me valuable insight into how insurance companies operate.  After graduating from law school at the top of my class, I became a personal injury trial lawyer because I knew that the insurance companies took advantage of  injured victims when they were the most vulnerable. I take great pride in obtaining the maximum compensation allowed by law for my clients.. I have been a trial lawyer for over 35 years and while the legal landscape keeps changing, what has not changed is our firm's availability to our clients 24 hours a day seven days a week with personal and caring service. Every client receives my personal cell number so clients can always get the answers they need.
