Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

I had a case that came in almost one year past the deadline for filing a worker's compensation claim. However, I was able to establish one of the exceptions to filing within the one year, which was payment of medical bills by the employer within a year of the accident, so I was able to win the case for my client. 3 previous lawyers had turned the case down before the client came.

How did you build a successful practice?

I rely, not only on client's giving me referrals, but also I rely on certain businesses giving me referrals over and over again because they know they can trust me to do a great job. Also, other lawyers send me cases and clients as well in areas where I have skill and expertise above their own.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

The number one thing clients should look for in a lawyer is that they should feel like they can tell the lawyer anything, no matter how sensitive, and that the lawyer will not only remain professional with the client, but that they can trust the lawyer to do everything that he or she can to further the client's lawful objectives. If there is no "chemistry" then the client should look for another lawyer.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

Extremely important. Knowledge of the players in a particular venue can mean the difference between success and failure.

What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?

I can tell if the client has a valid cause of action, and may be able to even provide some basic legal advice. Most importantly I can tell the client if they need to hire a lawyer, and if I can help them achieve success in their case. What information do you need for an in person consultation? I need the client to come in prepared to tell me what happened, how they were injured, and copies of some medical records, the police report, if one exists, and any insurance information the client may have.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?

I have been practicing law for 23 years. I practiced for a major insurance company and know a great deal about how insurance companies operate. I have also been a Certified Worker's Compensation Specialist for almost a decade. I was nominated by my peers to receive the title of Super Lawyer since 2009, and also nominated by my peers to be named a Top 100 Trial Lawyer in the State of Connecticut by the National Trial Lawyers Association. Finally, I was selected by my clients to be issued the Client Satisfaction Award as awarded by the American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?

I know it sounds cliche, but I love helping clients in any way I can.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

I am a professional Actor and Voice Over Artist and a member of SAG-AFTRA. I am also an author and wrote the only legal book on the market concerning legal issues surrounding Voice Overs, called, oddly enough ""Voice Over Legal"". I love to coach youth sports, and have been coaching for 35 years. I also love to play golf when I have a chance.

Are you involved in your community?

I am very active in my community. I am a member of several Charity Boards, I sponsor sports teams, and have been coaching Youth Sports for 35 years.

"Understanding Unlawful Occupancy Laws in Newport Beach" BY Newport Beach Real Estate Attorneys
Strategies to Reduce Child Support Payments
The article outlines the legal framework for child custody and child support in Georgia, emphasizing the best interests of the child while recognizing parents' financial realities. It explains the types of custody—legal and physical—and the factors courts consider when awarding custody. It also describes how child support is calculated using the income shares model, which considers both parents' incomes, adjustments for costs, and parenting time. To reduce child support payments, the article suggests filing a petition for modification, increasing parenting time, documenting financial hardships, negotiating with the other parent, and consulting a family law attorney. It also highlights key legal considerations, such as avoiding arrears and complying with existing court orders. The conclusion emphasizes pursuing modifications responsibly and through legal channels while prioritizing the child's welfare.
