MY EXPERIENCES
Over my 24 year legal career as a personal injury attorney, I have been privileged to represent hundreds of wonderful individuals and families in their time of need. Amongst the clients I have represented, a few cases come readily to mind. Starting with the mother whose three minor children were injured by a careless driver to a family who suffered the death of their beloved grandmother in a complicated motor vehicle accident. From a father seriously injured by an airboat as he stood on the shores of Lake Kissimmee to a motorcyclist who suffered a serious brain injury when his right of way was violated by a truck. The hardworking father whose vehicle struck a dump truck which had been carelessly parked across his lane of travel in the middle of the night to the pedestrian hit by a drunk driver. From a minor child struck by a car while on his bicycle to the elderly woman hit as she crossed the street. I have handled soft tissue claims, catastrophic injuries, and wrongful death claims.
In most cases, the victims had to deal with issues involving medical bills, future medical care, pain and suffering, lost wages and future impairment to earnings. Unfortunately, what all of my clients wanted was a magic wand to transport them back in time so that they could avoid the accident. Realistically, all my clients could hope for was fair and reasonable compensation from a judicial system that requires zealous, aggressive advocacy.
It is my belief that I not only met my clients’ goals, but exceeded their expectations. I would welcome the chance to discuss your claim, and your goals, so that I might have the opportunity to exceed your expectations.
