Questions & Answers
Please describe a case in the last year or two where you made a big difference.
I successfully negotiated a 350,000 settlement for my client. She knew from the moment I began working on her case that she could focus on her medical care and knee surgery while I tenaciously worked to resolve her case for an optimum amount. We offer personal attention to each and every one of our client. From intake to conclusion, our clients have our personal emails and can contact us directly to check on the status of their case.
How did you build a successful practice?
I pride myself on meeting with my clients personally and providing them with my personal email and contact number so that we can be in communication throughout my representation.
What should clients look for in a lawyer?
A seasoned, experienced, tenacious attorney, who is trustworthy and willing to go the extra mile to ensure that each client is being fully and fairly compensated for his or her pain and suffering. We make sure that we offer our client our personal emails and do our best to answer all their questions first hand from the beginning of their case until conclusion.
How important is local knowledge to the success of your cases?
It is important to be well versed local roadways and courts, as well as being knowledgeable about the nuances of the law for those injured here while on vacation or have a second home here but reside elsewhere.
What information can you provide in a free phone consultation?
My overall analysis of whether the client has a viable case to pursue and explain how my legal expertise can help them through the process.
What information do you need in a free phone consultation?
Name, date of accident, car insurance and police report information if available.
What differentiates you from other lawyers in your community?
Being involved in an accident of any sort is stressful and difficult. Plus, the laws surrounding injury claims can be tricky. We make sure that every one of our clients received our personal attention. Our clients are not treated like a number nor do they talk to our support staff. The talk and meet with myself or my law partner so that we can provide them with our legal assistance from the start.
What is the most rewarding aspect of your job?
I love to help people in their time of need and establish a relationship of trust so that my clients can focus on their medical care and getting back to their lives after being injured. My years of experience allow me to advocate for my clients and obtain an excellent resolution. In the cases where we insurance companies are undervaluing my clients' injuries, we will litigate and make sure our clients are involved in this decision from the onset.
What are your other interests in addition to law?
I am passionate about teaching children to swim. I taught my own four boys each how to swim before they were two years old. I love any activity involving the water, while having a profound respect for the water, understanding the importance of children learning how to swim and be safe in the water. I particularly love boating and paddle boarding. I also enjoy spending time with my family.
Are you involved in your community?
Yes, I am involved in local entrepreneur business chapters, church, and community service events.
