Relationship: Worked together on matter
I have both litigated cases against John and worked with John on cases. He is recognized as a preeminent workers' compensation attorney in Pennsylvania and highly respected by both the defense and claimant's bar. I often seek his opinion on complex worker's compensation matters.
