Disability & Life Insurance Attorney
Damon is a disability attorney who has been part of the team since May 2020 and leads the Trial Court Litigation Division of the firm. He represents disabled claimants against insurance companies that have wrongfully denied benefits. Because he understands that insurance companies sometimes ignore the advice of doctors and deny valid claims without listening to the claimants voice, Damon’s passion is to listen and help the disabled be heard loud and clear by the insurance company.
He is a graduate of the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, where he studied English Literature, and of William & Mary Law School (the Marshall-Wythe School of Law). He is a member of the Federal Bar Association, the Fairfax Bar Association, and the Virginia Trial Lawyers Association.Â
Damon is admitted to the following courts: Supreme Court of Virginia; United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia; United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia; United States District Court for the District of Maryland; United States District Court for the District of Colorado. Â
When he’s not battling insurance companies, he loves spending time with his wife, Emily. They’re always going on new adventures together, exploring new places, and trying new food. And in his spare time, he creates new worlds. He writes fantasy and science fiction stories and he’s currently writing an epic book series about an ancient medieval civilization facing the end of the world (think Lord of the Rings but with more dragons and explosions).Â
