Wealth of Experience

As an officer in the Painters and Tapers Union, I met Rod de Llano in 2003 and became awestruck by his passion to assist “blue-collar workers” with financial recovery from work-related injuries caused by hazardous materials such as asbestos. I joined the Mesothelioma.net team shortly thereafter, visiting clients nationwide and lending my construction knowledge to assist in identifying our clients’ hazardous asbestos exposures.

As our organization grew, so did our commitment to helping our clients and their families facing life-altering issues. Over the last 20 years, I have had the pleasure of not only assisting in recovering millions of dollars for deserving clients but also being instrumental in facilitating treatments and therapies that we carefully research. Through our medical contacts, we have made treatment possible for people otherwise facing a hopeless illness.

“Kind and Caring Hands”

With each client I visit, I carry the knowledge in my heart that they are in the kindest and most caring hands and will benefit from our strategic process that maximizes the financial recovery they deserve.
