I have been practicing law for over 14 years exclusivley in the area of personal injury. I began my career representing the insurance industry in relation to all types of accident from premises liability, auto collision cases and medical malpractice. After learning the defense side of these types of cases for 4 years, I changed my practice to helping those individuals injured as a result of the negligence of others and have been doing so for the past 10 years.. I enjoy helping those who cannot help themselves and do not know what to do when they have been harmed by another individual. I have travelled throughout the state of Texas helping other lawyers in handling personal injury cases.
