About Andy Dragovic

I come from a family of doctors. I have been lucky to in sense put the two together and in doing so I like to think I am making a difference in our healthcare system as a lawyer policing doctors. I started my legal career as a criminal defense attorney handling felony cases for indigent defendants. Very early in my career, I would be in court everyday. I handled several jury trials on my own, which you don't typically get as a young lawyer. As a result, I learned rules of evidence; how to conduct self in courtroom, how to cross examine a witness. When I started handling personal injury and medical malpractice cases I was able to draw on that trial experience from very early in my career. As a shareholder in the firm's personal injury and medical malpractice litigation groups, Andy has successfully represented individuals harmed by the negligent acts of health care professionals, doctors and hospitals, automobile drivers, motorcyclists, truckers and trucking companies, property owners, and sexual predators. Andy started his legal career as a criminal defense attorney handing felony cases on behalf of indigent clients. While there, Andy was in court nearly every day and handled several serious jury trials by himself; which is quite rare for a young attorney.
