I have known Andrew since the '90s. He is an attorney with a lot of integrity. Over the years I have referred many of my clients and contacts to him without hesitation as I know he will do a great job for them. If you are looking for a first rate attorney I highly recommend you contact Andrew!

I enthusiastically endorse Andrew. I have known Andrew for 20 years. He is a smart, aggressive, and experienced personal injury attorney. But Andrew also has a warm, human side in dealing with clients who have gone through difficult life situations.
