“I didn’t pick this area of law. It picked me.
My first clients as a lawyer were husband and wife who had a defective car. No one in the firm knew how to handle this type of case. So I worked hard to learn the law and how to handle the courtroom. The case actually went to trial and I was up against a billion dollar corporation and an attorney who had been a lawyer for over 40 years.
But we won.
I remember walking away from my first trial thinking that it was fun. To this day, in every case, there is an “Oh God, that was good!” moment for me.” – Ron

Suing Nexus RV
Ron and team did a wonderful job in representing my wife and in suing Nexus RV, one of the sleaziest RV manufacturers. They were competent, capable, thorough, and professional. We could not have been more pleased with their work.

Successful Resolution
We had a problem with our new RV and brought it back to the dealer for repair multiple times. After the first few, it became clear that they never really attempted to find the root cause but simply did the minimum to get us off their backs.
