During his tenure, he handled felony cases involving DUI, theft, robbery, burglary, battery and assault. In December 2005, he came back to Ocala and teamed up with his father at the King Law Firm.

He continued this success with notable recoveries of $14.1 million and $15.9 million in early 2019, among other substantial verdicts and settlements.
