introduction
Lawyer.com Member Questionnaire
Please describe a case(s) in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
I was able to settle a difficult case involving a student at a private university. Who was struck by a car at a blind intersection while riding his skateboard. He suffered serious injuries. The case was rejected by 3 other lawyers. We fought for 3 years and won a 4.5 million dollar settlement for him to help him for life. And convinced the private university to make the condition safe.
How did you build a successful practice?
I have built a successful practice by placing my client's interest first and before mine. Always fighting for the innocent injured victim in order to place them in the same level playing files as corporate giants. And never giving up. Always being honest and reasonable and dedicated to the practice of law and helping people which I love.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
People should look for an attorney when they need one by researching experience, reputation. And the results they get
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
Local knowledge is extremely important to the results I get for clients because you must specialize or limit your proactive to the area of law you choose and you must be familiar with all of the insurers, claims representatives, defense attorneys, and judges in order to have an advantage of predicting the probably results of a case.

We started practicing law in 1987. We have represented more than 15 000 clients. We have recovered more than 200 million dollars. We have experience.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
The most rewarding f aspect of my job is helping people get justice and a fair result. Knowing that without a skilled experienced lawyer they wouldn’t stand a chance and appreciate the opportunity to help and serve and ultimately accomplish our objective of getting a positive result a changing a person's life positively even in a small way.
