I love New York City and all it has to offer, but sometimes accidents happen.
Growing up, I was captivated by the stories of my grandfather and great grandfather, both respected attorneys. My great grandfather, a heroic figure, provided invaluable assistance to the chief U.S. prosecutor in bringing Nazi war criminals to justice and supporting Jewish individuals during that time. Meanwhile, my grandfather, always on the move, tirelessly aided his clients across the country.
As a college graduate, I contemplated ways to actively engage with my community. Recognizing my growing interest in the legal field, I embarked on my own journey. Initially, my plan was to pursue adoption law, drawing upon my own experience as an adopted individual to offer a unique perspective and help families navigate the adoption process.
However, after passing the Bar exam, I began my career as a litigator in a small firm to gain valuable experience. This is where I unexpectedly entered the realm of Personal Injury law. While initially intending to use this knowledge as a stepping stone toward adoption law, my interactions with clients revealed the tremendous impact I could have in the field of Personal Injury.
One of my greatest frustrations stemmed from hearing other attorneys speak to clients as if they were having a conversation with fellow lawyers. What bothered me even more was witnessing the disinterest that arose when a client's case wasn't deemed financially lucrative, leading to rushed resolutions or a lack of active management. Additionally, it was disheartening to see clients immediately passed on to paralegals and junior associates when they reached out for assistance. However, these experiences became pivotal in shaping my approach. They motivated me to build genuine relationships with my clients, understand their unique needs throughout the legal process, and ultimately fueled my passion for pursuing a career in personal injury law. My aim is to provide compassionate support and assistance to those who have endured serious injuries, as I firmly believe in helping others navigate challenging times with care and understanding.
Outside of my legal practice, you can find me exploring the various boroughs on my bike or enjoying quality time with my family and dog in Central Park. I hold a deep affection for New York and all that it encompasses. However, I recognize that accidents can occur unexpectedly, and during those challenging times, I am here to offer my support and assistance.
