Practice areas
  1. Construction and development
    50%
    I represent architects, engineers, general contractors, and subcontractors in all types of construction litigation.

    22 years

  2. Litigation
    50%
    My litigation practice includes insurance defense, products liability, toxic torts, deliberate intent, wrongful death, and all manner of civil defense litigation.

    24 years

My practice focuses on civil defense litigation with an emphasis in construction, insurance defense, products liability, wrongful death, personal injury, and toxic torts. Because litigation can be a very stressful event for even the most sophisticated clients, I pride myself in being responsive to my clients' needs and concerns and I work toward developing creative solutions for resolving issues in a professional and ethical manner. Also, I am comfortable taking cases to trial when pre-trial resolution is not in my client's best interests.
