Major Cases
I have defended droves of licensed professionals in disciplinary proceedings, including the pharmacist that sold the Propofol to Dr. Conrad Murray that killed Michael Jackson (a.k.a. The King of Pop). I also represent a small volume of plaintiffs in civil litigation, and most recently achieved a confidential settlement in a high-profile case against Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas which involved allegations of nurses intentionally killing premature babies in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.
