BACKGROUND

Justin joined Sam Bernstein Law in 2026.

He got his Bachelor of Arts at the University of Michigan, and in 2009 earned his Juris Doctor degree from Wayne State University. Justin has been the lead trial attorney in many Medical Malpractice and other cases and is a proud member of the American Board of Trial Advocates. He became an attorney so he could continue learning new things, meeting new people, and doing some good along the way.

Justin and his wife have two sons he says are smarter and busier than him. In their free time, they like to get outside and bike, rock climb, wake board, ski, or learn something new!
