About
I have more than 30 years experience in plaintiff's medical malpractice, birth related injuries, obstetrical and neonatal care, and anesthesia mishaps. I co-authored the two definitive reference books on the subject, Handling Birth Trauma Cases, Volume I and II, and hav been invited to speak at more than 100 seminars, workshops, panel discussions, law school classes, and medical conferences. I had the honor to be one of the few attorneys in the nation invited to speak at the Boston University School of Medicine's Annual Conference on Obstetrics, Gynecology, Perinatal Medicine and the Law in 2004 and again in 2013.
