Biography

Virginia and Eastern North Carolina trial attorney.

For 22 years I have represented insurance carriers, businesses, and individuals in cases involving liability defense, personal injury, and insurance coverage. I specialize in cases involving premises liability, trucking and auto accidents, product liability, construction claims, employment discrimination, and traumatic brain injury claims.

I handle large exposure claims in state and federal courts throughout Virginia and Eastern North Carolina. I try the cases that need to be tried, including several of the biggest cases in Virginia in recent years, including a defense verdict in a $10 million case following a 7 day jury trial and a defense verdict in a $3 million case following a 3 day jury trial. Virginia Business magazine has named me one of Virginia’s “Legal Elite.”
