In total, I spent 35 years in the insurance industry, handling liability claims. Prior to attending law school, I worked as an insurance adjuster and in claims management at GEICO. My positions allowed me the opportunity to learn a great deal about insurance company claims operations and the difficulties that large insurance companies face as well as the biggest hurdles for people who need to make claims. My work led me to attend law school while continuing my career in insurance. Following my graduation, I moved into the position of attorney with the company. Since that time, I have defended the insurance company and its policyholders in lawsuits in Virginia and have managed claims, personal injury litigation and insurance bad faith lawsuits country-wide basis. All of this makes me uniquely qualified to manage your claim and experienced in the maximization of the recovery you will receive from the insurance company.
