I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience from UCLA in 1998, before briefly entering medical school at Semmelweis University in Budapest, Hungary. In 2001, I changed direction and made a decision to begin a career in Workers’ Compensation, first as an Administrator of medical-legal affairs for a well-known medical provider, and, after receiving my JD from Southwestern University School of Law in 2009, as an attorney.. Since 2011, I have focused my professional endeavors on the defense of Workers’ Compensation matters, representing permissibly self-insured entities, insurance companies, TPAs and PEOs, as well as the occasional uninsured employer. I have been been able to utilize his considerable medical background, and medical-legal experience, in developing and implementing case management and litigation strategies to maximize early case resolution or mitigation of exposure in a variety of cases.. I have extensive experience in handling matters ranging from the straightforward orthopedic-only claim to complex matters involving multiple claims of injury, multiple body parts, multiple defendants, and high exposure, as well as claims involving serious and willful misconduct, and alleged disability discrimination under Labor Code §132(a).. I am admitted to practice in California and before the United States District Court for the Central District of California.
