"Having been both a city prosecutor and a public defender before focusing on civil and criminal law, I have handled cases ranging from traffic citations to first degree murder cases. I utilize my diverse experience to benefit my clients."
Expertise
PERSONAL INJURYSimply put, this refers to an injury to a person rather than to property. This can include traffic accidents, work-related accidents, home-related accidents, assault or product defects, as well as medical and dental accidents stemming from negligence. I am committed to getting my clients fair and just compensation for their injuries.

TRUCKING ACCIDENTSOne of my primary areas of practice is accidents involving commercial trucks. Too often, victims of these accidents do not know their rights and do not consider the long-term medical issues they may deal with — particularly once the insurance companies get involved. I help them navigate the system.
|
PRODUCT LIABILITYThis type of case involves holding manufacturers, distributors, suppliers and/or retailers responsible for injuries that are attributable to their products. I believe consumers have a right to expect that any products they buy should not cause harm.
|
TOXIC EXPOSUREEmployees count on safety in the workplace, but sometimes as part of their employment, they are exposed to dangerous or fatal chemicals such as asbestos, benzene and vinyl chloride. I will work with the families and victims of these exposures.
|
COMMERCIAL LITIGATIONI have experience working for businesses dealing with breach of contract, employment disputes, fraud and other forms of unfair business practices — especially in cases where a small business finds itself up against a larger corporation.

DEFENDING THE INNOCENTSome people refer to this as Criminal Defense; I prefer to think of it as defending the innocent. Too often, individuals facing criminal charges will accept bad plea deals rather than take a chance with a criminal trial. While this might be a safer bet, it's not what our notion of "innocent until proven guilty" is about.
