Tina studied at Johnson State College, earning a B.S., and at Southern Adventist University, earning an A.S.

That combination of formal education and hands-on clinical work provides a practical foundation for reviewing medical records, understanding standards of care, communicating with medical professionals, and identifying the factual issues that can determine a malpractice case.

Her matters have involved severe birth injuries, wrongful death, dental malpractice, compartment syndrome, missed heart disease, defective medical devices, surgical errors, radiology mistakes, and brain injury. She has obtained verdicts, settlements, and arbitration awards for clients facing permanent disabilities, major medical needs, infertility, and death. Her experience allows her to connect clinical facts with liability and damages issues while preparing cases for negotiated resolution or courtroom presentation.
