I am a lawyer with 27 years of experience, representing individuals, companies, municipalities and insurance carriers.  Most of my work at this time is on behalf of individuals, however, I am also acting as a mediator in an effort to bring resolution to cases.  Having extensive experience on behalf of both claimants and defendants gives me a perspective that many lawyers may lack; having tried many cases before juries gives me experience to know what  jury can do.
