I specialize in business litigation, transportation and marine litigation and products liability. I have represented clients in almost every state on the East Coast and am particularly skilled at utilizing litigation technology to effectively limit costs for my clients.
I am also an active scuba diver and Vice President of Risk Management for the Underwater Bar Association. As an advocate and volunteer for the Posse Foundation and Deliver the Dream, I enjoy spending my free time volunteering in my community.
