Biography
There is no second place in litigation.
I have one goal: to work tirelessly toward successful resolutions for you. My professional life has taught me that communication and caring is paramount to building trusting relationships with your customers. For many, litigation is an unfamiliar and scary process. My career as an insurance claims adjuster showed me that my clients, whether individuals or small businesses, most feared the unknown and needed communication for comfort during the process. I discovered that the more they were informed about the litigation process in general, and the status of their case specifically, the more that they trusted me. After nearly twenty years of classroom teaching, I know that a large part of any important pursuit, whether legal or otherwise, is in fact the learning process. As your attorney, is my job to do what is necessary to keep you informed, educated, and confident throughout your legal journey.
As a former claims adjuster licensed in Texas, I managed personal injury claims and litigation. This taught me the claims process, evaluation, and settlement procedures. In my position, it also provided experience in the alternative dispute resolution and litigation processes. This knowledge easily transfers to my practice.
I want to earn your business and keep it. While no one can guarantee any outcome of an individual’s legal journey, you can depend on me to protect your interests and work hard for a favorable outcome. I will be there for your legal needs when they arise and advocate for you until the issue is resolved. I am dedicated to customer service and finding innovative ways that I can best serve my clients.
