I understand the importance of hard work, preparation and persistence in obtaining results for my clients, both in and outside of the courtroom. I have successfully litigated thousands of cases over the last twenty-five years, with a keen focus on the outcome and results for the client. Although I spend most of my time fighting insurance companies, hospitals, physicians, and nursing homes before juries in medical malpractice, personal injury and negligence cases, my clients have also trusted me to handle their family and criminal law matters, administrative hearings and commercial litigation. I strongly believe in developing a relationship of trust that brings clients back.

My diverse practice areas have given me the opportunity to travel and appear in most courts throughout Michigan. In medical malpractice and personal injury cases, the attorney must be willing to go the distance because the cases often do not resolve easily. I recognize how each step of the litigation process from inception, working with the client, the selection of experts, the filing of the lawsuit, preparation for depositions and mediation, all work together to position the case for settlement or successful jury verdicts. My best days are when I can make a difference for my clients.

One of the qualities that drives my practice is empathy. In handling personal injury, family law and criminal law cases, I am sensitive to how quickly clients’ lives can be turned upside down. I am often reminded that bad things happen to good people. Whether helping an injured victim, a person struggling through a divorce, defending a young client from making a poor choice, or advocating for a second chance before an administrative hearing officer, I believe that compassion and sensitivity toward the client must be genuine to have a meaningful impact on the outcome.
