I act on behalf of individuals that need help. This often involves people who have been injured through medical errors or other accidents. I also work for people that have been wrongfully denied coverage by their insurance company on a range of matters from losing their homes in a fire to being denied the security promised by their long-term disability benefits provider. In either instance, the best part of my work is being able to help individuals who are going through difficult times and playing a role in getting their lives back on track.

I have had the good fortune of working on behalf of many exceptional clients. While the vast majority of cases settle, when the other side is not willing to negotiate fairly and pay what a claim is worth, we are ready and able to take cases to trial. Some of the cases that I have taken to trial or appeal are available on the Trial Results tab in my bio. These include professionals who have suffered life changing brain injuries, individuals who have lost their homes in a fire and had an insurer deny them coverage, and working people who are living with chronic pain due to an accident.

Born and raised in Vancouver, I have lived here my entire life (with the exception of 4 years in Montreal for my undergrad at McGill). My wife and I have three young kids — a daughter and two sons – who keep us busy and grounded. I am a past president of the Trial Lawyers Association of British Columbia and the current co-president of Jericho Little League where I also coach multiple teams.
