Bio
For over 35 years my practice has focused on helping the victims of accidents. I provide a service and am keenly aware that clients can choose someone other than me. I learned early on as a piano performance major in college and in the start of my legal career in the District Attorney’s office that there is no substitute for discipline and hard work. I still practice the piano daily and work harder than ever for my clients.
Although maintaining a busy law practice is time consuming, I take the time to study all that is new in the field of personal injury. I spend some time lecturing as well and am fortunate to have received numerous honors and awards from my profession. I have fostered relationships with other attorneys who oftentimes refer me cases. All this has enabled me to hone my skills so that the people I help will get the best possible outcome. I consistently remind myself if I have not exceeded your expectations today, someone else will tomorrow. I make it a point, every hour of every day, to make certain that does not happen.
