When I was in seventh grade, I was hit by a speeding car while I was walking home after playing basketball at a local Boys & Girls Club. The force of the impact propelled me approximately 15 feet and I landed, unconscious, on the porch of the Hebert Candy Shop. I was rushed by ambulance to Bridgeport Hospital, where I was treated for a concussion and injuries to my right arm and hand. I remained in the hospital for three days and missed nearly one month from school. Fortunately, after excellent medical treatment, I was able to recover from my injuries.

During the course of my legal career, I have successfully represented numerous men, women and children who have been injured in motor vehicle collisions, construction accidents, falls, workplace incidents, or as a result of legal malpractice, medical malpractice or sexual abuse. My own personal experience as an injury victim has been invaluable in helping me to understand the pain and suffering that these individuals have endured and how their injuries have adversely affected their daily life.
