When you need a lawyer, you have the right to expect a legal professional who maintains the highest standards of integrity and is focused on obtaining the best possible outcome. When I opened my law firm in Toms River, New Jersey, in 1991, I was driven by my commitment that every client would be confident of receiving the highest level of legal knowledge and skill, backed by responsive, understanding and compassionate client service.
Since resigning my partnership in Ocean County's largest and most respected law firm after 11 years, I have remained in my law practice for more than 20 years. I believe it is the only way to assure my clients that I am dedicated to working directly with them on every case. When you call, I will respond as quickly as possible. When we meet during your initial free consultation, you will know immediately that I am committed to working only with clients I believe I can truly help with my legal experience and knowledge.
In order to be the most effective lawyer, I limit my practice to the following areas of the law:
- Criminal Defense: Aggressive, effective defense representation for people charged with indictable crimes and disorderly persons offenses, including DWI and related traffic offenses, drug crimes and juvenile offenses.
- Personal Injury: I will help you pursue the maximum compensation to which the law says you are entitled for injuries or the loss of a loved one caused by another party's negligence. I have many years of insurance defense experience, and I understand the strategies insurance companies use to protect themselves from liability and damages and how to combat those strategies.
- Workers' Compensation: If you were injured on the job in New Jersey, you may be entitled to receive benefits under the state's workers' compensation insurance system. I can help you file a successful initial claim, re-open a claim or appeal a claim that has been denied by the workers' compensation court.
- General, Contract and Business Litigation: Knowledgeable and experienced litigation services for individuals and companies involved in general disputes and contract litigation matters.
Experience Backed by a Record of Success
I back my experience and knowledge with more than 100 trials and 60 appeals, including more than a dozen decisions that have been published as legal precedent in the State of New Jersey. As my law practice has earned recognition among satisfied clients and legal professionals, I have taken an active role being part of a growing, thriving Toms River community that I am proud to call home.
