If negotiating fails, Todd understands that a well-planned, cost-effective approach to litigation yields the best results. Having tried well over a hundred cases before a jury, judge, or arbitrator, Todd has mastered the courtroom skills that help a client decide to “go to the mat” or seek a reasonable settlement.

Undoubtedly, military service has chiseled Todd’s ability to remain calm under pressure. As a U.S. Naval Academy graduate and a commissioned officer in three branches of service, the Army, Navy and Marines – effective leadership is a hallmark of his character. A degree in Aerospace Engineering with an emphasis in planetary orbital mechanics allows him to quickly unravel and deftly handle the most complex and intricate cases. From construction defects to business disputes to engineering failures, no case is too difficult. Being a Marine Flyer and NASA veteran – attention to detail and planning precision/execution are second nature. These traits transfer directly to the effective practice of law.
Todd has been married to his wife, Maria, for 33 years and has two adult sons. He is an active private pilot and scuba diver and enjoys traveling with his family.
