I graduated from the University of South Florida, where I received a Bachelor’s degree in criminology in 1987. For my law degree, I attended St. Thomas University School of Law where I earned my Juris Doctor in just 2 ½ years.
Following law school, I worked at the prestigious law firm of Blackwell & Walker P.A., as a litigation attorney handling a wide range of matters in the areas of medical malpractice, life insurance defense, commercial litigation, general insurance defense and eminent domain. In 1993, I opened my own practice representing individuals in cases involving medical malpractice, wrongful death, serious personal injury, negligent security and product liability. I’ve been fortunate to have cases featured in local and national publications and I have consulted on cases throughout the country. My medical malpractice cases include delay/misdiagnosis of cancer, wrongful amputation, misdiagnosis of stroke, complications during pregnancy and delivery, including several stillbirth cases, audiology malpractice, ophthalmology malpractice and plastic surgery malpractice.
In March of 2014, I joined Rubenstein Law as a litigation attorney, and I am currently the Litigation Attorney Supervisor. I mentor and train the firm’s younger litigation attorneys and try cases throughout the State of Florida in both state and federal courts.
I have tried over 100 jury trials to verdict, and I have had cases go all the way up to the United States Supreme Court. In 2016, together with Anthony Soto, we obtained the highest Medical Malpractice verdict ($7.7M) in the State of Florida. I have also handled multi-million dollar arbitrations before the American Arbitration Association and the American Health Lawyer’s Association.
I am fluent in Spanish and English.
