After graduating from the University of Santa Clara I received by Juris Doctor Degree from University of the Pacific's McGeorge School of Law. After a short period of time in the District Attorney's office in Sacramento I was offered a position with the firm I have remained with for the last 35 years.
I have been fortunate to have been selected as a Super Attorney (recognized by peers as being in the top 5% of the Personal Injury Trial Lawyers in Northern California) as well as receiving the AV rating (highest achievable for ability and ethics) by the Martindale-Hubbell rating service.
I had the privilege of representing many injuried individuals against insurance companies in jury trials and was the trial attorney in the largest personal injury verdict in Merced County.
