Hebert Law Center with Juris Doctor and Bachelor of Civil Law degrees, he worked for LeBlanc & Waddell practicing mass tort litigation and representing hundreds of union workers, including laborers, pipefitters, welders, and other industrial employees against big business and insurance companies.

A few of the personal injury claims that he has represented in the McKernan Law Firm have been serious spinal injuries, traumatic head injuries, fractures, torn ligaments, back injuries and more.
