law firm. Before going to law school, Jim earned a graduate degree
in management and served a number of years in the software
industry. Jim then obtained his JD at Gonzaga University School of
Law, magnum cum laude, where he served as an associate editor
of the Gonzaga Law Review and member of the Gonzaga
University’s Board of Regents and National Order of Barristers.Jim
entered private practice after fulfilling a clerkship under Justice
Cliff Young of the Supreme Court of Nevada. He is experienced in
trial and appellate procedure, managing many million dollar cases
involving products liability, insurance coverage, medical
malpractice, personal injury, bankruptcy and employment law. Jim
is licensed to practice in all state and federal courts in Nevada, and

Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
Workmen’s Compensation
You have a right to work in a safe environment.
Nevada employers are required to provide workers
compensation insurance, and they are not allowed
to retaliate against employees who report injuries
on the job. Unfortunately, the workers compensation
system is not administered with your best interests
in mind, nor does it always provide the best medical
care. If you are injured at work, we can help you
navigate through the workers compensation system
to obtain the best medical care and an appropriate
outcome.
Accident investigations
Knowing how and why an accident occurred is often
difficult to determine, especially long after the date of the
accident. If a party is not issued a traffic citation, or if police
officers do not appear at the accident scene at all, insurance
companies often refuse to honor valid claims. We can help
sort out and identify the relevant facts of an accident to
determine whether you can seek compensation for your
injuries.
Car Accidents
Nevada laws require drivers to exercise
reasonable caution when driving, but the vast
majority of car accidents are caused by driver
inattention, often involving texting, cell phone use
or other negligent behaviors. While most
accidents do not cause significant damage to the
vehicles involved, studies demonstrate that severe
injuries can be caused by relatively minor auto
collisions. Nevada law allows car accident victims
to demand full compensation for these injuries,
which includes lost wages, loss of earning capacity,
and pain and suffering. We have helped thousand
of Nevada drivers recover full compensation as a
result of driver negligence.
Spine injury
Spinal injuries do not typically result in full paralysis,
but they can drastically change your life, forcing you off
the job, limiting your daily activities, and even
hastening further deterioration of the spine. Although
insurance companies attempt to minimize the severity
of spine injuries, we work with experienced surgeons,
pain management specialists and other medical
professionals who will treat and properly document
your injury, making it easier to be compensated fully for
your loss.
