About Jeena
Hire an accident lawyer who has been on the inside of the insurance business.
I have 25 years experience in Plaintiff’s Personal Injury, No-Fault and Uninsured Motorist Law, Subrogation, Insurance Coverage Disputes, Contract Disputes.
Represented clients who have suffered serious injuries in motor vehicle, slip and fall and construction accidents. I have litigated many cases which have established the benchmark for the defense of No-Fault arbitrations and suits.
In hiring me, you have the distinct advantage of my experience as an attorney who has defended various insurance companies. I know what the insurance carriers don't want you to know. I understand their mindset and strategies. Now I can put them to work for you!
In addition, I defend people in court who are being sued by collections agencies and banks. Don't fight them alone.
