Mr. Emanuel started his legal career developing trial skills as a criminal prosecutor and defense attorney. In 1996, he went into private practice and started the Law Offices of Todd P. Emanuel. The firm is exclusively dedicated to representing personal injury victims and their families in serious and catastrophic cases.
