Since graduating from law school in 1992 I have only represented individuals against defendants in all types of cases including car crashes, falls, dog bites, aviation accidents and now primarily nursing home malpractice cases.
I started my career defending insurance companies, but quickly realized my heart was in helping real people – not corporations. Now, I’m proud to fight for the little guy every day.
