For over two decades, I have represented people injured by trains, cars, trucks and defective products  The injuries have been across a broad spectrum, from a broken bone to multiple injuries resutling in amputation and/or paralysis.  My verdict record speaks for itself having tried multiple cases to million dollar plus verdicts.  I take a keen interest in every client I have.   I do not take on a large number of clients.  Instead, I prefer to focus on a few clients that I can develop a deep relationship with them as well as devote the necessary time to their case.
