Questions & Answers

Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.

We handled a case with a young boy that was hit in a crosswalk by a van. He had trouble walking. We were able to ask all providers to handle the case on a lien basis which included an extensive rehabilitation process and he was able to get back to normal within a year after the accident. I was invited by the family to see him in his karate class which made me feel incredible seeing him jumping around. On the business side, we had litigation against LAX which we were able to successfully handle for our client.

How did you build a successful practice?

My business is built on client service and satisfaction. I meet with each client myself and discuss the case in detail. It is very important that we put together a plan for the case. Regardless of the size of the case, a well thought out plan, in the beginning, will ensure the success of the case at the end.

What should clients look for in a lawyer?

A good lawyer needs to listen to the client. We know the law. But to have a successful case, an attorney must to tailor each case to the client's unique case. This is not possible unless if you pay careful attention to what each client details about their case.

How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?

It is important to know the jury pool and to know the local behaviors. Law is an art and knowing the local behavior of the jurors, Judges and arbitrators will be extremely important in planning your case.

What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?

The personal care and the planning of the case are what makes us different. I personally will meet with you and go over your case. Not a paralegal, clerk of a case manager. I will discuss your case and we will both agree on a plan. I pride myself in being awarded top 10 customer satisfaction survey awards from 2005-2020.

What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?

Seeing my clients obtain the highest possible recovery for their pain and suffering. I can not take back time and erase the accident. But I can make sure that you receive the highest possible recovery for the type of accident and injury you claim in the accident.

What are your other interests in addition to law?

I am a soccer coach and love soccer. I am also involved in local non-profit organizations like Healthy Kids programs.

Are you involved in your community?

Yes, I am the vice-chairman of the Civil Service Commission in the City and a Volunteer Temporary Judge in the Los Angeles Superior Court. Also, I belong to on the Board of numerous non-profits in the County.
