Summary of Workers Comp Experience
My experience involves over ten years of private practice almost exclusively in the field of Workers' Compensations Law. I have been on both sides of the bar, representing primarily employees for five years and primarily employers since then. I have significant experience at all levels of the hearing and appeals process. This includes appearance in appellate cases of major legal importance , such as Adams v. AVX, Zimmermanv v. Eagle Electric, and Clark v. Wal-Mart. I have presented CLE conferences for the NCATL, NCADA, NCBA, and NCIC. I also currently serve as a Adjunct Professor at UNC School of Law where I teach Worker's Compensation Law and Practice.
