When a big rig destroys a family, insurance companies send their best. I know — I spent a decade as one of their defense lawyers.
After nearly 30 years in practice, I now fight exclusively for injured victims against the trucking industry, commercial carriers, and maritime employers on the Gulf Coast.
What I handle: 18-wheeler, semi-truck, and tractor-trailer accident cases; commercial fleet and delivery vehicle accidents; catastrophic injury and wrongful death in trucking cases; FMCSA violations, hours-of-service litigation, and driver qualification failures; Admiralty & Maritime and Jones Act claims for injured Gulf Coast seamen and offshore workers, including unseaworthiness and maintenance-and-cure disputes.
Why attorneys refer cases to me: I'm one of a select group of attorneys recognized by Trucking Top 10 Trial Lawyers™ — an invitation-only designation limited to the top 10 trucking injury attorneys per state or region — and I've been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America® for Admiralty and Maritime Law and Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs (2023–present), along with America's Top 100 Personal Injury Attorneys® and The National Trial Lawyers: Top 100.
I co-counsel and accept referrals from attorneys across the country for Louisiana trucking, commercial auto, and maritime/Jones Act cases.
