Mr. Coulson first joined the firm as a law clerk in June, 2012. As an attorney, he is proud to continue his work protecting people’s property rights from the actions of corporate and governmental entities.
As a law clerk, Mr. Coulson was closely involved with the firm’s successful appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit in Bell v.
