Biography
About 80% of my practice is in Veteran’s Law and I represent veterans in claims before the Veterans Administration and the Court of Appeal for Veterans Claims in Washington, DC. I also give a significant amount of pro bono time to veterans whose legal problems are interfering with their eligibility for VA treatment.
I also represent (i) injured people with personal injury claims, (ii) disability, probate and family matters, as well as (iii) inmates with civil rights claims.
