About
The legal system is complicated, and even more so when you're dealing with a serious disability or after a complex injury from an accident. I promise to keep you informed and educated throughout this entire process, making sure you understand the ins and outs of your case, so we can make the best decisions for you and your loved ones.
Strategic from the start
There is no cookie-cutter approach to helping people navigate a serious injury or disability. Your case is unique. Experience has taught me that when we build a solid base of evidence from the start, we can more effectively work together to help you move forward with your life.
A holistic approach
Regaining financial independence is one goal when dealing with personal injury and disability cases. But we must also look at supporting your medical, psychological and vocational rehabilitation. That way, we consider every facet of care and help you might need. I work at the intersection of law and medical/rehabilitation issues, keeping a focus on what can help you to best recover and live your best life.
