About Me

I started my career in the construction industry sweeping floors and cleaning up work sites. I continued to work my way up, learning my trade and qualified as a certified carpenter and roofer, then became a member of the Labor, Plumbers, & Roofers unions.

After attending law school at Seattle University, I began my legal career working for the largest insurance defense firm in the State of Washington. I served as lead counsel, representing a wide variety of construction developers, general contractors, roofers, carpenters, siding companies, framers, window installers, gutter installers, EIFS installers, electricians, and plumbers.

In 2002, I left the insurance defense sector and started my own practice with a focus on litigating construction defect claims on behalf of defrauded building owners and homeowners.

My extensive familiarity with complex coverage and liability issues, focus on fostering close client relationships, diverse construction and construction defect experience, and dedication enables me to recoup money other firms give up on.
