Our professional practice is dedicated to personal injury law with the goal of helping accident victims and their families. I have personally recovered millions of dollars in settlements and awards for his injury clients in the past few years alone. In 2012 I recovered $3.85 Million on behalf of a motorcyclist against a local county agency which is believed to be the highest such award against such an entity ever achieved in that county. Our firm's practice covers all areas of personal injury including auto, motorcycle, and truck accidents, construction accidents, dog bites, slip and falls, and other accidents.
More important, however, is our dedication and attention to detail with each case we handle. Regardless of the size of the case, we strive to ensure thorough preparation, diligent representation, and timely results. We are committed to a practice that provides integrity, compassion, and responsiveness to every one of our clients. The numerous attorney and client referrals we have received, as well as the testimonials from former clients, attest to our firm's professional dedication and quality of work. We would like to help you on your injury case!

Steve is one of the best personal injury lawyers in the field. His knowledge of the law and ability to achieve results either in negotiating with insurance companies or in a court of law are equally as admirable as his customer service, work ethic and ability to truly put his clients first. Steve's personal service and attention to the detail achieve a level of service and results that other personal injury attorneys can only dream of. I look forward to working with Steve on future matters.
