Personal Injury Attorney
Orange County, California Area
I have a wealth of experience representing injured persons, including thousands of settlements, hundreds of mediations and arbitrations of claims, and over 25 jury trials.
I have an extremely high client satisfaction rate and am viewed by my clients and peers as highly honorable and diligent. Defense attorneys often refer me cases after litigating against me.
Since 2006, I have served as General Counsel to a large police union in Los Angeles County and have previously served as General Counsel for a large Orange County alarm company and a software developer in Orange County.
I am also a Special Master, appointed by the State Bar of California in 2005.

I love to read, travel, and spend time with my family and friends. I used to play a lot of tennis and golf but major back surgery ended those hobbies. I can work out (no squats!) at the gym, which along with walking our dogs allows me to stay in shape and work off the stress. I also volunteer at the Coastline Pro Bono Clinic and try to always have one pro bono case in my office.
