His work centers on serious matters where records, witnesses, experts, and trial preparation shape the case.

He earned his B.B.A. and J.D. from the University of Oklahoma and is a graduate of the Gerry Spence Trial Lawyers College.

Proven verdicts and settlements
On December 14, 2019 Emily Gaines, an 18-year-old Moore High School senior, was driving to take the ACT when Sgt. Kyle Lloyd of the Moore Police Department, off duty and rushing a key to another officer's patrol car for a department event, hit her broadside at 95 to 100 mph in a 50 zone. She died at the scene. On April 1, 2026 a federal jury returned $126,000,000. The court entered $90,000,000 against Lloyd, who is in prison, and cut the $36,000,000 against the City to $125,000 under Oklahoma's Governmental Tort Claims Act.
Gregory N. Davis, 53, was booked into the Oklahoma County Detention Center in August 2021 on a misdemeanor outraging-public-decency complaint. Over nine days a peptic ulcer perforated. Another inmate testified that he screamed in pain, cried and begged for a nurse for days; detention officers reported none of it and missed mandatory cell checks. He was found unresponsive during a mental-health check and died at a hospital on August 12, 2021. On April 17, 2026 a federal jury unanimously found the jail trust deliberately indifferent to his medical need and awarded his estate $2,000,000.
