Born and raised in Southwest Florida.  I am committed to helping to serve this community.  I served in the United States Army during Desert Storm and Desert Shield.  I want to be your soldier for your case.

I have dedicated my entire legal career to helping victims of accidents caused by the negligence of others.  One of the most important things that sets me apart from other personal injury attorneys is accessibility.  Taking the time to answer all of my client's questions or concerns has very rewarding.  Most of my new clients are referrals from prior clients, so I am aware of how important good customer service is.. I offer a free consultation and all fees are contingent upon a successful recovery.  That means that I don't get paid unless you get paid. Thanks for visiting, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.
