Personal Note
My favorite part about being a lawyer is personal relationships with litigants. It is gratifying to work with small employers and business owners, walking them through what can be the confusing maze of the workers’ compensation system.
I am a Boston Terrier addict and love all things Boston Terrier. I never tire of their independent, playful attitude, unending mischief, and general joy and playfulness they bestow on my home.
