When you’re injured in a car accident or through another situation involving the negligent actions of another party, you want to put your case in the hands of a lawyer who has the knowledge and experience necessary to fight for you to obtain the compensation you deserve. I have been practicing personal injury law since 2000, and have dedicated my career to improving the situations of individuals and families affected by various matters, including car accidents, medical malpractice, workplace accidents, and more. With nearly 20 years of experience representing clients in the Chicago area, I am dedicated to helping you face challenging legal circumstances following an accident so that you can move on with your life and future.
With degrees from Iowa State University and John Marshall Law School, I have a strong foundation of skills and knowledge that laid the groundwork for what I consider to be an important aspect of personal injury law: practicing a steadfast work ethic that puts clients and their needs first. In addition to my education and years of professional experience, I am a member of numerous organizations, including the Chicago Bar Association, the Illinois Bar Association, and the American Bar Association. I have also completed training on Developments in Insurance Coverage Law, Trial Techniques Before Proceeding To Trial, Ethical Applications of the New Illinois Rules of Evidence, and other courses relevant to personal injury law.
