I have practiced civil trial law for 30 years, primarily in the areas of catastrophic personal injury and death cases with an emphasis on transportation and consumer products liability and premises liability. I have practiced before state and federal courts in 30 states and in the District of Columbia. In the course of my career, I have become experienced in all facets of case evaluation and investigation and trial preparation and practice. My work in complex injury and death cases has also given me a great deal of multi-disciplinary experience in the fields of insurance, engineering, physics, failure analysis, accident reconstruction, fire science, premises security, food safety, economics, psychology, medicine, epidemiology, life care planning, and rehabilitation among others.I am now looking forward to transitioning my career from full time trial practice into areas where I can effectively share my substantial body of trial experience and knowledge to help other lawyers and their clients bring their cases to successful resolution, through mediation/arbitration expert witness services and liability prevention counseling.
