I originally joined the firm in 2014, to continue my practice which is concentrated in insurance defense litigation. My primary work is counseling and representing a variety of professionals including physicians, nurses, emergency transport companies and their employees, other health care providers, hospitals, and other health care facilities, in both malpractice actions and administrative proceedings. I also handle general civil defense work in personal injury cases and contract disputes, representing both public and private entities. I handle all aspects of litigation and administrative matters from inception of a claim/lawsuit through trial and have tried 10 cases to a jury.
