  I am proud to have joined my longtime friend and Villanova Law School classmate Steve Harvey as Senior Counsel at Steve Harvey Law LLC. Steve Harvey Law is a trial and litigation law firm in Philadelphia, PA. It represents both plaintiffs and defendants in complex and commercial disputes. Over the past 30 years, I have worked as a trial lawyer and litigator for commercial and civil rights matters in Philadelphia and Chicago for some of the best law firms in the country. I also have worked as an appellate lawyer for the Philadelphia District Attorney’s office, and in that office's Post-Conviction Relief Act Unit. I have worked on a broad range of litigation matters including insurance, antitrust, civil rights, securities, employment, corporate disputes, education law, and personal injury claims. I was until joining Steve Harvey Law a shareholder of McAndrews Law Offices, where I concentrated on education law and civil rights at the trial and appellate levels. I am a 1985 graduate of the University of Notre Dame and a 1989 magna cum laude graduate of Villanova University School of Law, where I was an editor of the Villanova Law Review. Following law school, I clerked for the late federal district judge Donald W. VanArtsdalen in Philadelphia.
