"I invest a great deal of time keeping up with the current changes in the law. I continually educate myself with new trial techniques and I strive to expose deceptive defense practices and the junk science they espouse through their controlled witnesses. My job is to present the truth to the jury, and to effectively counter defense tactics which seek to distort the truth.
