As an attorney who also practiced as a registered nurse and chiropractic physician, it is my goal to understand client's injuries and make sure that each client receives the best care possible for the restoration of health.
My background as a doctor enhances my ability to accurately and persuasively describe client's injuries to insurance adjusters, arbitrators, judges, and juries.
