In my legal journey, I have found that every case, regardless of its size, holds its own unique lessons and memorable moments. Some of the most rewarding experiences have come from securing substantial settlements for our clients. We take great pride in actively listening to and maintaining regular communication with our clients, ensuring that they understand they are not alone in their legal battles.
Our commitment extends beyond the courtroom. We work tirelessly to help clients access the necessary medical treatment for their pain and injuries and ensure they receive fair and reasonable settlements. Collaboration and open communication with our dedicated team members are integral to our success.
One standout achievement in our practice involved a product liability case that took us on a five-year journey, involving countless hours, and trips to Hanover, Germany, Ohio, and Manchester, UK, as well as numerous depositions. In the end, we secured a remarkable $12.1 million settlement for a deserving widow, providing her with the financial support she needed in the wake of her loss.
At The LJU we are not only advocates for our clients but also active participants in our community. We are proud members of the Nevada Justice Association and are dedicated to making our society stronger through legal advocacy.
Outside of the courtroom, I find joy in a variety of pursuits, including golf, spending time with family, basketball, mountain biking, and attending concerts and comedy shows. These experiences enrich my life and fuel my passion for serving our clients with the utmost dedication and expertise.
Thank you for considering The LJU Law Firm for your legal needs. We look forward to the opportunity to provide you with exceptional legal representation and support.
As a seasoned litigator and trial attorney, my journey in the legal field began with a profound realization early in my career. While meticulously tracking every minute and creating billable hours, I discovered a different approach to legal practice—one rooted in alignment with my values and economic insights: the contingency fee arrangement.
This revelation led me to delve into the world of contingency-based work, particularly in personal injury law. With each passing day, my conviction deepened that this was the perfect fit for my skills and principles, and I have never looked back since. It was this passion that drove me to establish The LJU Law Firm, a practice dedicated to serving a diverse clientele with unwavering commitment and expertise.
At The LJU our focus areas include trial law, personal injury (encompassing Product Liability, Motor Vehicle Collisions, Motorcycle Accidents, Slip and Falls, Trip and Falls, Paralysis, Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), Amputation, Back Surgeries, and Neck Surgeries), and Civil Rights (including 1983 claims, Excessive Force, Medical Indifference, First Amendment Rights, and Retaliation). We believe that every jury verdict, whether a victory or defeat, represents a significant accomplishment.
