Questions & Answers
Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
Several years ago, we represented a construction worker who had fallen through a skylight and was seriously and permanently injured. The defendants alleged that our client should not have been in the area of the skylight and sought to dismiss the case. The trial level Judge agreed and granted the defendant's attorneys motion to dismiss the case. We appealed and won the appeal and thereafter settled the case for an amount totaling $12 Million!
How did you build a successful practice?
We have been serving the community since 1952. We have an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau. We have a record of success and have built a successful practice through personal attention to our clients and the goodwill and referrals generated thereby.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
When represent many clients who have been referred to us by former clients and family members. Prospective clients should look for an attorney with a solid reputation over the course of many years who has had excellent past results.
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
Local knowledge is important to the success of a case because as a "regular" in a particular Courthouse, you can gain the respect and friendship of the Judges and the defense attorneys who also regularly practice there. In addition, when selecting a jury, you have the edge of knowing how prospective jurors may view your case.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
We offer free telephone consultations for accident victims, at which time we can fully discuss a prospective case with the caller, answer any questions they may have, and if it is a case we wish to pursue, we can then set up an appointment to meet with us so that we may be retained. If we agree to accept your case, there is no attorney fee unless we are successful in winning a recovery for you.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
In a free telephone consultation we will discuss the facts of your accident, your injuries and medical treatment, your rights with regard to medical coverage, and any other questions you may have.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
What differentiates us from other attorneys in the area is our proven track record of success since 1952. We have an excellent reputation for integrity and honesty, and combine that with an aggressive pursuit of our clients' cases. Martindale Hubbell has given us an AV rating, which is the highest rating an attorney can receive for Legal Ability and Ethical Standards, and the Better Business Bureau has given us an A+ rating. The greatest compliment is that many of our clients are referrals from past clients and family members.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
The most rewarding aspect of our job is when we are able to help an injured client get back on his/her feet, and give them the financial security they need to live a dignified life.
What are your other interests in addition to law?
As a former collegiate athlete my interests outside of my profession include participating and watching sports and in travelling and enjoying the outdoors. I am also an advocate for the environment and give to many worthy charitable causes.
Are you involved in your community?
I have been involved in my local community as a Little League Manager for over 10 years and I serve on the Board of Directors of my local place of worship.
