I am a Partner with Levy, Thompson, Sibley & Hand, LLC. Our firm is a full-service law firm for employers, insurance companies, business, medical clinics/providers, non-profit entities, financial institutions, and brokers. We represent our clients in all areas pertinent to their business.

We do NOT represent employee/claimants and/or personal injury plaintiffs.

Professionally, the most important thing to know about me is that I am very dedicated to my clients and my work. It is my chief goal to ensure that my clients recieve, bar none, the best possible service at fair and marketable rates. Personally, the single most important thing to know about me is that I am a dedicated and unashamed Christian who loves his wife and family dearly.
