Tough cases and just cases. No matter your legal problem, I will work tirelessly to insure a successful outcome for you.
My motivation is to put my experience and training to work for my clients. I have over a decade’s experience representing families in custody and divorce cases, and in suits against corporations, insurance companies, banks and landlords. The vast majority of lawyers have never tried a case before judge and a jury. I have tried and co-counseled more than a dozen jury trials, resulting in hundreds-of-millions in settlement and verdicts for my clients.
