About

I have been practicing civil litigation with a focus in insurance and business litigation since 2007. I was named a Rising Star by Super Lawyers in 2015, 2016, and 2017.  I was also recognized as a Top Attorney in Insurance Law by the Daily Transcript in both 2013 and 2014.
Most recently, I settled an insurance bad faith case on behalf of a major real estate developer for $3.6 million.  The case involved CGL primary and excess policies spanning 7 years and hundreds of underlying claims.
In 2013, I prepared for and second chaired a fourteen day adversary trial in US Bankruptcy Court resulting in a judgment of $14.7 million in favor of my client.
In 2009, I waspart of the plaintiff trial team on an insurance bad faith case titled 1800 South Maple Street, LLC, et. al. v. Allied Property and Casualty Insurance Co., et. al. (37-2007-00074662-CU-NP-CTL), which went to trial resulting in a favorable jury verdict totaling $28.8 million in compensatory and punitive damages, garnering accolades as the tenth highest jury verdict in California of 2009 and one of the top one hundred jury verdicts in the country.
I graduated from Providence College in 2002 summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Political Science.  I then moved cross-country to sunny San Diego and graduated from the University of San Diego School of Law with a Juris Doctor and a Masters of Law in Taxation in 2005 and 2006 respectively.
