Suzanne focuses on achieving great results for her clients by forging a connection, taking the time to understand their issues and how best to approach them. After spending several years working for the plaintiff personal injury bar, Suzanne joined SBA in 2018. In her previous career, Suzanne worked in the corporate dental industry and actually knew the 5th of 5 dentists who recommend brand name toothpaste. Now she knows the 5th of 5 ways to win an insurance dispute.

Suzanne is an engaged and confident litigator who focuses on both tort and accident benefit disputes. Her experience acting for both insurers and plaintiffs has taught Suzanne that there’s two sides to every story. With the unique ability to evaluate and tactically manage matters from multiple viewpoints, Suzanne makes sure her side is the most compelling.

When not drafting Booker Prize worthy legal briefs, Suzanne indulges in her love of all animals. She spent several years fostering dogs for a rescue group and has two rambunctious dogs of her own. She even has a degree in “Equine Studies”, which is a real thing (we googled it).
