I am a full-time mediator based in San Antonio, Texas. Thank you for visiting my website and for taking the time to learn more about my background and approach.
In late 2021, I stepped away from an active trial practice—and occasional service as a mediator—that I had maintained for more than 33 years to establish a full-time mediation practice. Over the last 20+ years of that work, a running joke among colleagues was, “What type of trouble are you dealing with this time?” That comment reflected the wide range of matters I handled. I frequently worked on cases involving death and serious injury, including product liability claims, while also maintaining an active docket of commercial, real estate, construction, and insurance disputes. My work in these areas led to listings under Product Liability and Commercial Litigation by Best Lawyers in America and recognition in a poll of San Antonio attorneys published in Scene in SA magazine. Whether right or wrong, I have always believed that this variety encouraged continuous learning and helped me avoid becoming too comfortable. It also offered meaningful perspective on addressing the complex issues parties face in litigation, including identifying paths to resolution, anticipating challenges, and developing practical ways to move past them.
Most cases resolve before trial. From that standpoint, the ability to guide parties toward resolution is just as important as trial experience, even though it often receives less attention. Looking back, I am grateful that clients frequently commented on my approach to resolving disputes. Assisting parties in reaching resolution is work I value deeply, and it is now my sole professional focus. I welcome the opportunity to serve as your mediator and to help facilitate a process aimed at achieving resolution and finality in a setting where you and your clients remain in control of the outcome.

Injury Law Firm Serving San Antonio and Clients Throughout South Texas
There are many reasons why people throughout South Texas choose our firm to go to bat for them and fight for the compensation they deserve. Some of them are:
We are serious attorneys for serious injuries. We understand that any vehicle wreck or other injury-causing accident can be disruptive. Even a minor fender bender resulting in minor pain can be a physical and financial burden. When an accident causes severe injury and significant property damage — things that are truly life-changing — victims need and deserve experienced legal representation.
We have decades of combined experience negotiating fair settlements for our clients and fighting in court when compensation is on the line. We have developed the most effective strategies for holding negligent parties accountable for their actions, and always look for every possible way to help our clients.
We are more than just lawyers; we are members of the community. We come from hardworking South Texas families. When our clients and their families face mounting medical bills and the loss of a family member’s paycheck, we know how financially and emotionally stressful that can be. We are proud to stand up for hardworking people who face financial hurdles because of another party’s negligence and get them the full compensation they are entitled to.
We value attorney-client interaction just as much as our clients do. Too many people meet with a lawyer just once, maybe twice during a case — and feel treated like nothing more than a case file the rest of the time. With a firm of our size, we can ensure that our clients can always speak with an attorney when they have questions about their case or concerns about case strategy, while maintaining a staff that can handle routine matters and make the process as simple as possible. And, whether our clients speak with a receptionist, paralegal or attorney, they will always be treated with respect, dignity and understanding.
