I became a lawyer because I enjoyed the
the courtroom and the the litigation
experience I mean I grew up
participating in sports uh always
actually thought that was going to be
part of my life that competitive nature
of things and uh I started working in
real estate for a brief time and went to
law school to continue that endeavor but
when I got there and did some mock
trials and some courtroom experience uh
that really l a fire in me and got those
competitive juices flowing again there’s
a a good guy and a bad guy and you know
you’re you’re fighting for somebody I
just really enjoyed that and wanted to
continue with
[Music]
that I think a big part of finding
success in the courtroom is really
getting to know your client well uh you
want to know them personally you want to
know what their life was like before the
accident happened who they were what was
important to them and then and how that
was all impacted by their accident and
their injuries uh because a big part of
what you’re claiming for them is getting
the compensation for what’s been taken
from them and that’s not just what’s
wages have been lost at work or medical
bills it’s the changes to their quality
of life and how they’ve been impacted
and you can’t really do that unless you
get to know them well and that’s one of
the things that we really take pride in
here
