Major Cases

While the majority of my civil litigation practice focused on representing manufacturers, architects and engineers, and corporations, there was one case that was particularly rewarding for me. I had the opportunity to advocate on behalf of two former female inmates who were sexually abused in prison. I worked directly with one of the clients in getting her prepared for the litigation process. The team of attorneys representing the two clients successfully negotiated a $1.25 million settlement on their behalf.
