When we decide to work together, my promise to you is that I will be your trusted advocate and counselor for your case.. The types of injury and death cases I work on varies but generally fall into the following categories: personal injury (bicycle crashes, pedestrian crashes, auto crashes, motorcycle crashes), workplace injuries, premises liability (conditions on property causing harm), products liability (products/equipment causing harm), dog bites and attacks, medical negligence, and sexual assault and abuse..
