The local Palm Beach Chapter is comprised of only 107 select members of the legal community. Chapter activities support the mission of ABOTA through educational programs, judiciary events honoring local, state and federal judges, juror education and recognition, and local scholarships.
The organization and its members are dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the civil jury trial right provided by the Seventh Amendment to the U.S. Constitution and are committed to preserving the independence of the judiciary, recognizing that judicial impartiality and fairness protect against the whims and demands of the government and special interests.

He represents individuals, businesses, and governmental bodies in high-stakes litigation, often in cases with complex technical issues.
