DeSmet Insurance Defense Lawyers

Licensed in Washington and Idaho, my practice focuses on insurance defense, real estate transactions and litigation, civil rights litigation, and employment litigation. Whether representing business and corporate clients or individuals, my goal is to ensure that the legal problems my clients face are resolved in an efficient, effective, and economical manner. I believe that forthright communication between the attorney and client fosters a productive, long-term relationship.

I have 37 years experience with the same law firm assisting a wide range of individual, governmental, insurance companies, and other institutional clients in Idaho and Wyoming in general civil litigation and estate planning. My cases have included jury and court trials in all state and federal trial courts, and appellate courts including the Idaho Supreme Court, Wyoming Supreme Court, and the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
