Providing the Connection Between Law and Technology

I began my career as a mechanical engineer where I gained first-hand experience with construction sites. Using this engineering knowledge, I then became a U.S. Patent Attorney. Through these experiences I realized that without the in-depth technical knowledge of an engineer, it can be difficult for people to understand how to pursue a personal injury case as they sometimes do not completely understand what caused their accident.

I saw that people needed legal representation from someone with the technical background necessary to understand the complicated products we use every day. That is why I am now a personal injury lawyer who handles numerous cases involving defective products and equipment, mechanical failures, and construction site accidents.

Business Law

My associate, Chris Gunderson, is of counsel to handle business cases involving general business matters and litigation, corporate structure and affairs, and legislative and governmental regulation. His career includes experience as general counsel for several large corporations.
