He has argued before the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and the Ohio Supreme Court.

Over the past several years, Jim’s litigation practice has extended to medical malpractice defense on behalf of physicians, nurses, hospitals, and other medical care providers. Jim has also defended physicians and nurses in State Medical Board proceedings, and various other professionals before the SEC, FINRA, NASD, and Ohio regulatory agencies.
