I have been licensed to practice law since 1985.  I worked for insurance companies for over 20 years before I switched sides and started representing injured persons who have have been injured in car wrecks, work accidents, product liability cases, slip and falls and other injury matters.  The fact I worked for insurance companies means I know their tactics and how to beat them.  I believe the best lawyers are the ones who were originally trained to defend large companies and insurance companies.  Further I am board certified in personal injury by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization.  Only 10% according to the State Bar of Texas are board certified  see:().. You can bet that the insurance company or the company you are claiming injured you has a board certified lawyer.  Why would you not want a board certified lawyer on your side.  The consultation with me is free and if I take your case you don't have to pay me unless you win your case.  Put my experience and certification on your side.  I live and work in El Paso, Texas.

While with that firm, I second chaired two million dollar plus cases, one of which took over 5 weeks to try.. I subsequently moved to El Paso, Texas where I was an Assistant District Attorney and served in the office's "Family Violence Unit," where I tried over 20 domestic violence or Assault Causes Bodily Injury (AFV) trials to a jury..
