Attorney, Arbitrator, Mediator
CurrentI have been engaged in general civil trial practice since 1987. For over 25 years, I have been involved in all aspects of litigation in State and Federal Courts in both Pennsylvania and Ohio. I have extensive trial experience in litigating personal injury liability cases of varying complexity, ranging from routine product liability claims to complex motor vehicle fatality accidents. A significant percentage of my practice involves representing trucking companies, both through their insurance carriers and directly as general counsel for such clients as Western Express, Inc.; Old Dominion Freight Line; Rocor; Covenant, and Celadon TruckingIn addition, I have developed a specialty in the area of construction matters, including numerous surety legal issues arising under payment and performance bonds. I have been involved in the litigation of construction bond cases, and have handled the arbitration of numerous claims before the American Arbitration Association. I am an active member of the American Arbitration Association Construction Arbitration Panel. I routinely serve as an Arbitrator both individually and as a panel member. I am also an American Arbitration Association trained mediator and member of the Panel of Mediators.
