I focus my practice in construction litigation and have significant experience in insurance and medical device litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). I serve as a trial lawyer with case experience in both state and federal court representing business owners, contractors, subcontractors, architects, engineers, and more.Within the area of construction, I specializes in litigation, indemnification and bid challenges, and assists in reviewing contracts and agreements to help clients avoid potential lawsuits as a form of risk management. As a member of the Insurance Law Group, I have extensive experience with personal injury and property damage matters, representing insurance companies and individuals. I have dealt with cases involving toxic tort litigation, mold claims, products liability claims and other product defect litigation on the regional and national level. Additionally, I takes care of catastrophic permanent injury claims and complex workers’ compensation issues. I am a known and trusted resource and frequent selection as an arbitrator or mediator. Over the course of my career, I have arbitrated or mediated over 250 cases. I began my career in ADR over 15 years ago with an appointment to the Alternative Dispute Resolution Program instituted in Luzerne County when various issues caused a shortfall in available judges. I served as a Judge Pro Tempore for the conciliation and/or trial of specially assigned civil cases.
