I have nearly 40 years of courtroom and litigation experience, getting compensation for people hurt on construction sites, car accidents, by falls, and by defective products -- whether at work, at home, or on the road. I'm a lifetime member of the Multimillion Dollar Advocates Forum, having litigated multiple cases paying more than $2 million dollars to injured clients, and have been selected as a member of the Top 100 National Trial Lawyers Association. No case is too big -- or too small. I've handled everything from 'fender benders' to being one of the attorneys who sued 'Big Tobacco.' I'm known as a tough and creative advocate for my clients, and find out of the box solutions to difficult cases. I'm also a "lawyer's lawyer", with many other attorneys, and even law professors, coming to me to solve their hardest cases.. No one will work harder to get you fair compensation.

In one recent example of this, my firm and I were able to successfully survive a statute of limitations motion to dismiss on grounds that our plaintiff client's claims accrued some fifteen years prior to the time he filed suit. The key was a creative approach to interpreting governing trust language.. In addition, I strive always to show courtesy, kindness, compassion and professionalism to my clients.
