As a dedicated Wisconsin motorcycle accident attorney and shareholder at Lawton & Cates, S.C. in Madison, I’m committed to helping injured riders—motorcyclists and bicyclists—recover after life-altering accidents. With Wisconsin’s vibrant riding community, from the Trans-Wisconsin Adventure Trail to Door County’s scenic routes, I understand the thrill of the open road and the devastation a crash can cause.
My nearly 20 years of litigation experience, Super Lawyers recognition, and NBTA certification equip me to tackle complex personal injury cases, from catastrophic injuries to wrongful death claims. I fight aggressively against insurance companies to secure compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering, ensuring you can focus on healing.
