EXPERT

​Many experts who testify in court cases come from academia. Nothing wrong with that. I’m a little different though. I have a scholarly background in advertising and marketing. I’ve written five books on advertising law that have been used in universities across the country for 30 years. I even taught the subject at the university level. But there’s something else, something more. I have real world experience to draw from, 50 years to be exact. I’ve done the work in the trenches. I developed thousands of campaigns. Hundreds of trademarks. I’ve managed consumer and focus group research. And I’m a member of the Society for Consumer Psychology for extra measure.
