As a father, I not only understand the legal aspects of personal injury and criminal defense, but I also know how it affects families. Legal troubles, I strive to find justice for all of my clients in a timely and cost-effective manner. I also try cases. That is important to you because you need a lawyer who will fight for you to get justice. I'm a lifetime Red Sox fan, love to spend time with my Wife Ally and two boys, David, 25, and Thomas, 26, and continue to try a lot of cases each year. I am proud to be a trial lawyer and strive to have each client walk away knowing I fought on their behalf. I have been voted a Top 40 Personal Injury "Super Lawyer" multiple years, and four times I have been voted one of the Top 100 Minnesota "Super Lawyers". I'm active with TLU, CRISP, and Injuryboard.
