University Park Family Lawyers

Your lawyer should know the law. What sets a lawyer apart is the ability to tell your story. Not a fictional story but the real life narrative about what someone else's carelessness did to you and those you love. I spend my time exploring and understanding your story so my clients know the person fighting for them knows them. It is called personal injury because the things that happen are deeply personal.
