Biography

I focus my practice on business bankruptcy, consumer bankruptcy, personal injury, and insurance law (including insurance bad faith). Here are a few examples of recent cases I have handled***:

In a 2011 chapter 13 bankruptcy, I reduced the Debtors' second mortgage from $51,740.57 to $10,000.00 through an adversary proceeding against the lender.

In a 2010 chapter 11 bankruptcy, I reduced a $202,248.12 secured obligation to $15,000.00 through an adversary proceeding against the lender. Obtained confirmation of a plan of reorganization that reduced the business's unsecured debt by 60%.

Representing the Moonlight Basin Golf Club Member Committee in the Moonlight Basin Bankruptcy, I aided the committee in procuring a return of more than $3,000,000.00 in committee member funds.

In 2011-2012, obtained nine "policy limit" settlements in various personal injury and wrongful death cases.

Settled a 2011 insurance bad faith case for a confidential amount.


***Past results afford no guarantee of future results. Every case is different, and must be judged on its own merits.

If you have a case you would like me to review, please call. I am happy to discuss it with you.
