I was born and raised to represent individuals who have been needlessly injured. I mean that literally. At a young age my father would tell me about the clients he was representing. I would meet them and take pride in their admiration of my father. I always knew I wanted to be a lawyer and represent clients that needed my help. I was an athlete in high school playing both football and track. I then went to undergrad at the University of Missouri where I could enjoy my passion for Mizzou sports up close.  After obtaining my degree in Business Administration I went to St. Louis University for Law School. I knew I wanted to be in court so after law school I obtained a job working at the Circuit Attorney’s Office in the City of St. Louis.   It was at the Circuit Attorney’s Office that I was able to hone my trial skills while representing victims of crime. At the Circuit Attorney’s Office, I tried over 50 cases starting with simple assaults and then eventually murder cases. I presided over the Grand Jury and was head of the Bomb and Arson unit.

I try to give back to community when I can.  I started the Downtown Neighborhood Watch Group and raise money for Multiple Sclerosis.  I have been named National Multiple Sclerosis Corporate Achiever for my fund raising efforts. I love the city of St. Louis and support it whenever I can.  Recently I was appointed by Mayor Francis Slay to serve on the Advisory Board for the Gateway Mall. I am married to my lovely wife Lauren and we have a beautiful young daughter Mia. I would be happy to represent you.

After many years of diverse practice experiences, I've settled into doing what I enjoy most: helping injured people and their families.  We can't return lost time, we can't mend bones, and we can't bring loved ones back; however, we can give people a fair opportunity to obtain justice in the civil court system.  Helping people understand and navigate the civil justice system is what motivates me.  And, at the end of the case, the best part is when my clients or their families tell us, "thank you."  I hope someday that I can be a good example for my two children, so that they work to help those in need in their communities, too.
