"My experience with the Barnes Firm was unbelievable from start to finish. My attorney Alex Bouganim- there aren't words sufficient enough to describe just how amazing this man is. He is 100% a bull dog but one you definitely want in your corner! He was an advocate for my well being, completely transparent, professional, personable and without a question, trustworthy. Trust, in delicate matters, is SO important! I've never met his assistant Wendy, but I am convinced she is a robot. She has to be thee most efficient human being I have ever known. This experience is one I will never forget and I am eternally grateful that I was placed in their hands."

Biography
The road from point A to point B is not always clear. To get to point B, one may have to make numerous stops along the way. While some may view these stops as hindrances, I view them all as valuable learning experiences. By drawing on the experience earned at each stop, one develops both the tangible and intangible skills necessary to be successful at point B.
For me, each stop on the road has been crucial to my success as a personal injury attorney. Working with various federal and state judges, I have gained exposure to the inner workings of complex courtrooms, as well as the thought process of a judge and jury. With this behind the scenes knowledge, I honed my oral advocacy skills and earned numerous moot court and trial advocacy accolades.
No matter where I have stopped, I have learned that being able to understand another person’s situation remains one of the most important abilities. I understand the unease and uncertainty that follows an accident. I also understand that putting your trust in someone’s hands is no easy task. However, armed with my legal experiences and achievements, a strong work ethic and the backing of a national law firm, I am eager to go to work for you and demonstrate why you made the correct decision to put your trust in our firm.
