The old days of Hawaii…

Between 1988-1992 Workers Comp case, He is awesome! I enjoyed the win he got me and was able to buy a car and home when I returned to the states, tell him Mrs Coleman says a great great hellos and thanks for fighting for me while I was just 28 years old, I still have some trouble from the injury but ...Lawyer and doctors saved my life in many ways.. Wishing him many great Christmas’s, I’m glad he is still working and I found him on Dateline show for a case he was defending… Wow it’s a small world.. God bless my friend…

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
