Hamilton County Workers' Compensation Lawyers

For me, becoming a lawyer has always been about helping others seek justice and fighting for the rights of our clients. As a former prosecutor in the Suffolk District Attorney’s office, I began to understand what was important to jurors in making their determinations which helped me in becoming an effective trial lawyer. As a proud Iraq Veteran and former Army Captain, I understand how important the words service and duty are. I bring these qualities with me into the courtroom where I help clients obtain millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts in New York State.

Other than being a father and a husband, my passion is representing injured people against corporations and insurance companies that put profits over safety and devalue human life, and fighting against them and bringing them to justice. It’s my “why” as a plaintiff attorney. After working for the largest insurance company in the tri-state area, I can tell you that all insurance companies follow the same business model—to take in money on premium dollars and payout as little as possible to injury victims. To do that, they hire defense attorneys and paid-opinion witnesses to escape accountability. Rest assured, though, that if the...
