18 years of experience

California

I am a Managing Partner of Jacoby & Meyers. I started my career as an attorney at Latham & Watkins LLP, a prestigious, global corporate law firm, where I quickly realized that representing big corporations was not for me. After leaving the firm, I dedicated myself to fighting for the rights of the injured.

My Personal Injury practice, Jacoby & Meyers, is dedicated to representing individuals who have suffered injury, whether it be physical, emotional, property, or financial. Our attorneys have the skills necessary to handle and negotiate all types of personal injury claims, whether they stem from a car accident, motorcycle accident, slip and fall or dog bite.
