San Francisco, California, United States
Trial attorney. I have over 30 years experience representing people and families in cases involving serious and permanent injury or death. My opposing counsel, peers and judges consider me one of the top trial lawyers in the country. I am a member of the “big four” invitation only trial lawyer organizations: American Board of Trial Advocates, American College of Trial Lawyers, International Academy of Trial Lawyers, and International Society of Barristers. I represent a select number of clients. This approach allows my team to maximize attention to each case. We meticulously prepare each case for trial which leads to superior outcomes for our clients, whether by settlement or trial. Specialties: ride share, pedestrian injuries, truck collisions, bicycle crashes, defective and unsafe products, negligent security, construction site, and unsafe conditions of property.
Trial attorney. I represent individuals and families who have been seriously harmed as a result of the wrongdoing of others. My experience includes cases involving ride share (Lyft and Uber) accidents, bicycle accidents, construction site injuries, defective and dangerous products, automobile collisions, truck accidents, pedestrian accidents, and premises liability incidents resulting in injuries stemming from unsafe conditions. I personally handle my clients' cases from the outset through resolution. I have tried cases to juries throughout California, and enjoy trial work. However, the vast majority of my client's cases settle by way of mediation, due to the hard work of thoroughly preparing their cases. I often use focus groups to test the strengths and weaknesses of our arguments.
