I work by the book. I don’t cut corners or blur lines. Clients know that when they hire me, I am going to play by the rules and work as hard as I can to advance their interests in achieving the best outcome possible.
My practice primarily focuses on clients in medical malpractice and commercial litigation matters. In defending medical malpractice claims, I have advised on cases involving anesthesiology, cardiology, critical care, emergency medicine, family practice, general surgery, internal medicine, maternal fetal medicine, neurology, nursing care, obstetrics and gynecology, ophthalmology, orthopedic surgery, physical medicine, rehabilitation, physical therapy, plastic surgery, psychiatry, pulmonology, radiology, reproductive endocrinology and infertility. I have also represented physicians in administrative fair hearings and matters before the Nevada State Board of Medical Examiners. My defense practice has also extended to other types of personal injury cases involving wrongful death, premises liability, and general negligence. For commercial litigation cases, I have experience handling contract disputes, wrongful termination actions, and real estate disputes. Additionally, I have handled appeals to the Nevada Supreme Court and currently serve as an arbitrator for the Eighth Judicial District Court’s arbitration program. Representative clients include the University Medical Center of Southern Nevada, a trucking company, a home health care company, restaurants, landlords, investors, creditors, and other businesses, insureds, and insurers.
