I represent only plaintiffs in major personal injury matters. My goal is to level the playing field against big corporations and moneyed interests. My motto is "Deserve Victory".
I have been representing seriously injured people and their families and the heirs of wrongful death for 43 years. I specialize in complex personal injury matters of all kinds including paralysis, brain injuries and wrongful death matters. I have appeared all over California and the United States and in Europe.
