Biography
I'm the lawyer the TV lawyers ultimately send their cases to for actual trial work. I am licensed in 5 states including California, New York, Pennsylvania, Colorado and Texas. I am a specialist in products liability claims involving pharmaceutical drugs and devices as well as asbestos. I also handle claims involving brain damage, paralysis, and birth injuries. Most importantly, your individual case matters to me and I am always accessible. I am AV rated by Martindale Hubbell and have never been sued or faced a bar complaint.

Legal Answers
- Q. If I am pending a litigation case what is the best thing to do
- A: Hire a lawyer experienced in the subject matter of the claim. If it is a bad medical device or pharmaceutical product, hire an experienced and knowledgeable products liability attorney. If it is an auto accident, hire an auto accident lawyer. Regardless, always ask the attorney, when was the last time you entered the courtroom and tried a case and what was the result?
