Throughout his career, he has provided clients guidance in some of the nation’s most challenging jurisdictions, including Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Arkansas, Oklahoma, Washington, Georgia, Nevada, Minnesota, and Arizona.  He advises on coverage determinations, but also handles bad faith and garnishment actions in a broad range of first-party and third-party claims that often have an element of potential extra contractual exposure.
