My Approach
Clients dealing with the fallout from a new loss do not need the added stress of navigating insurance issues. They need someone in their corner to handle all aspects of the insurance recovery process so that they can focus on getting their organization back on track. My objective in every matter is to be that person. I genuinely enjoy managing the trajectory of a dispute from day one, mastering the intricacies of the insurance program, and methodically dismantling the insurer’s position.
