Welcome. Thank you for your interest in my profile.  I have been a lawyer 34 years and therecipient of numerous awards and publisher of many articles.  I was the recipient of the Trial Lawyer ofthe Year Award, issued by Trial Lawyers for Public Justice in 1997.   This was in recognition of the work I did inKirkwood v. General Motors—anautomotive crashworthiness case.  Mypractice largely focuses on automobile crashworthiness cases, medicalmalpractice cases and catastrophic injury cases.  In 2001, I successfully petitioned theNational Highway Traffic and Safety Administration to recall the passenger sideair bag in 1994 Nissan Altima vehicles. This is the only time NHTSA has ever ordered a recall of an air bag dueto design deficiencies.  Dateline NBCdevoted a story to this accomplishment. I work hard to compassionately represent the interests of my clients,keeping each one fully abreast of developments in his or her case.  Please stop by my website for client andlawyer testimonials and further information about my practice:  .
