During his time at his former law firm, he obtained his law licenses in Arizona (2013) and New Mexico (2019) and gained valuable experience in conducting all aspects of litigation through a multi-district practice.

Lucas has dedicated his career to representing individuals against insurance companies and large corporations. Nowhere is this more important than in the context of personal injury claims.
