Associate Attorney
“I know what it’s like to be injured, and I know what to do about it. When you’re hurt because of someone else’s negligence, the legal process can feel overwhelming, and insurance companies will do everything they can to minimize your claim. I’ve been in your shoes—I’ve felt the frustration, the uncertainty, and the struggle to recover while fighting for what’s fair. That’s why having the right attorney makes all the difference. “
