I have been practicing law in North Carolina since 1990 and am admitted to practice before the U.S. 4th Circuit Court of Appeals and the U.S. District Court for the Middle District and Western District of North Carolina.
Before I began representing injured people in the mid-1990's, I worked for an insurance defense firm in Greensboro. In that role, I gained considerable experience in injury litigation and wrongful death. This experience is invaluable now as I take on the insurance companies in my representation of the injured.
I have a wife, Carla and a son and daughter.
