About Vaughn
In 1982 I was in a serious car accident. I was in a coma for several months and went through a lengthy recovery. I know what you're going through; because I've been there myself. For this reason, except for time spent as a deputy prosecutor, I've spent the last 20 years protecting the rights of the seriously injured and I'll protect you. The accident attorney you choose makes a big difference. You need an experienced accident attorney who will fight hard for you. When I fight, I fight to win.
