Thomas earned his JD from the University of Chicago Law School whose enivironment of ideological diversity inculcated in him the ability to see legal issues from many different perspectives. The most enduring lesson Thomas acquired from his legal studies is that effective legal representation requires not only the ability to strongly argue on behalf of the client, but also the ability to understand and predict the arguments made by the opposition.. Outside of the law, Thomas has been involved with non-profit organizations rebuilding houses in New Orleans after Katrina, and environmental protection efforts after the BP oil spill. He is also a self-described "amateur musicologist" with an interest in pre-War jazz and blues, and a novice photographer.

I learned early on that as a lawyer, I could change people’s lives for the better.A few years ago, I had a client who worked for one company as a tankerman for 20 years. He was ordered into a crawlhole during a storm to check the radar, and as he was getting out, the boat hit a swell. He was thrown backwards and ended up with a spine injury.. He went from being the main provider for his family to borrowing money to get a Coke and sleeping on people’s sofas.. The day of the trial, the company offered us $100,000.. The jury came back with the verdict of $1.6 million in favor of my client. He hugged me and started crying. His family cheered.. I looked over at the defense lawyer and had an epiphany: His clients never hug him. Win or lose, they would have just argued about his bill.. That’s why I never doubt that I’m on the right side of justice.. When I take on a client, I dive head-first into their world.I want to know what it was like to be there during their injury… What it felt like, what it sounded like, what it smelled like. I want to know what was happening through their eyes.. I deep dive into what their life was like before their injury, and what it’s been like since.. As their attorney and advocate, it’s my job to absorb their story and be in touch with my client emotionally—not only so that they know I’m truly on their side, but also to effectively present this story to a jury of their peers.. Telling that story together... that’s how we win.. Maritime is a very distinct area of law, unlike any other.And not every lawyer understands the ins and outs of these types of cases.I do.

I defend clients in complex litigation matters covering products liability, medical malpractice, transportation, and commercial litigation and frequently select appellate cases.

I have been first chair trial counsel in jury trials involving traumatic brain injury and multi million dollar life care plans. I believe in honest two way communication with all of my clients. I pride myself on being responsive, candid and creative.

For most of my life I remember always wanting to help people.. After my brother died in a hospital, I focused my practice towards victims of medical malpractice.. A caring lawyer can be the greatest comfort during a time of uncertainty.. But as I looked around at my profession I saw a lack of integrity, honesty and knowledge in this complicated area of the law.. I saw people who value money above their client's best interests.  We all take an oath but many don't follow it.. So, I resolved to be different and to practice differently.. I avoided the overhead of a big firm and started a personalized practice with my clients getting all the attention from me, an actual lawyer...and not a paralegal or secretary.. If you are interested in working with an attorney who cares about both winning your case and helping you heal please contact me for a free consultation on your case.. Thank you,. Ramesh
