I'm a lawyer specializing in medical malpractice defense.  My practice is in both Oklahoma and Texas.  My father is a surgeon, so I grew up around people in the medical field and have first hand experience about what it is like for a healthcare provider to go through a lawsuit.  I think that experience makes me uniquely qualified to help healthcare providers through a difficult process.. I'm the proud father of 2 amazing kids and am lucky to get to spend my time away from the office watching them grow up.
