Practice areas
  1. Medical malpractice
    50%
    Catastrophic personal injury and wrongful death resulting from medical negligence. I exclusively represent the injured person or family of one killed as a result of medical negligence.

    34 years

  2. Birth injury
    20%
    Medical providers and hospitals are adept at minimizing their fault for a child's birth injury, often indicating the child's injury was a "birth defect" or out of their control. I solely represent the child and his or her family and have obtained millions of dollars in compensation for children when many times the parents were under the impression that their child was simply "born that way." My experience can mean the difference between lifetime compensation for your child or not.
