Practice areas
I have successfully sued virtually every major insurance company for non-payment or underpayment of homeowners claims involving fire, wind, and water damage. I also handle cases involving business, uninsured motorist, and life insurance policies.
32 years
Employers do not have a right to fire employees based on their gender, age, religion, race, or because they have disabilities that don't interfere with their jobs. Employers do not have a right to fire employees while they are out on family and medical leave. I have successfully handled numerous cases involving employment discrimination, retaliation for whistleblowing, and violations of state and federal family and medical leave laws.
22 years
I successfully litigated a class action against a major bank that attempted to collect on foreclosed mortgages. I am currently handling two class actions involving insurance issues involving unlawful provisions in homeowners and automobile policies
23 years
In 2017, I obtained a $1.3 million verdict on behalf of a client who was seriously injured in a construction accident. I have handled numerous cases involving automobile accidents, dog bites, and slip and falls over the years.
32 years
I handle cases involving boundary disputes between neighbors, real estate fraud, and transactions where either the buyer or the seller breaches the purchase contract. In some cases, title insurance or homeowners insurance policies may pay the cost of defending such cases in court.
