I represent people who've been injured because of the negligence of others.  I have concentrated my practice in the field of personal injury litigation, including trucking accidents and litigation. My practice includes a variety of cases including auto negligence, premises liability, insurance coverage disputes, uninsured and underinsured claims against insurance claims, and wrongful death cases.  I have tried more than 80 civil jury trials, and represented clients in Indiana Court of Appeals and Supreme Court.  I received a Martindale Hubbell AV Preeminent® Peer Review Rating. 

It was in the U.S. Army that I learned the meaning of serving, so that I could be of service to others. Prior to my legal education, I served in the U.S. Army, and served in the Republic of Panama.  I was also assigned to the Republic of Honduras on two tours of duty. I received the Army Commendation Medal, and Army Achievement Medal with Oak Leaf Cluster. 

I began representing the interests of others before I ever entered law school. As a Union member,  I served as a Committeeman (shop steward), Collective Bargaining representative during contract negotiations, and Financial Secretary Treasurer.
