Hello again. I hope everyone who is reading this (and even those who aren’t) are well! I imagine we have all hear stories about those who try to manipulate the system by bringing false or exaggerated claims. Although in my experience it is very rare, sometimes people exaggerate their injuries. Sometimes they set up crashes […]
It shocks me as a I drive around town to see lawyers like myself advertise as “accident” attorneys. When I see (or hear) this I generally shake my head with a not so mild degree of disgust. Why, you ask? Good question. Because calling a crash or collision an accident demonstrates a fundamental misunderstanding as […]
With the “Big Game” coming up in a just a few weeks, our town is going to be inundated with out of town guests who are here to cheer their team to victory. Many will be renting cars. They will be unfamiliar with the roads. They will be experiencing all Vegas has to offer. They […]
It is hard to believe that 2023 is coming to a close. The years seem to go by faster and faster with each passing turn around the sun. I would like to think that the old adage applies “time flies when you are having fun” and that is why this year has flown by so […]

The firm was a large advertising firm (although dropping cases that take some extra work isn’t unique […]
I love history. I find it fascinating. What I don’t love, however, is when history is distorted and manipulated to serve an unjust end- when those with power, influence, and money manipulate the facts to their own benefit it prevents justice. That makes me mad. I have a burn case. My client was on his […]
