I came to California to study law at the University of Santa Clara, not realizing I would stay. After law school, I practiced in San Jose at a medium sized, commercial litigation firm for 3 years, and then moved to Santa Rosa, where I have lived and practiced law since 1990. I love the wine country, with all of its beauty and culture. The food and wine are unbeatable. I feel privileged to practice law and raise a family in an area that is so beautiful.. When I went to law school, I thought I would become a prosecutor of crimes, a District Attorney. Instead, I fell in love with personal injury work while working as a law clerk for Joe Carcione on the Peninsula. So now I prosecute personal injury claims. I love my work!. I have taken many cases to trial, when I've had no choice; but of course more than 95% of my cases do settle without trial. I believe strongly that potential clients should hire only personal injury attorneys who are willing to try cases, and who have tried cases, preferably to verdict. My two cents, as they say.
