Reviewing the article. I think it Fails policy WP:BIO. Its reads like a CV. Named to Thomson Reuters’ Super Lawyers each year since 2007. Could be notable? scope_creep (talk) 11:59, 20 December 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. This is just a resume. There's no indication of notability. I don't see that the fellowship in American College of Coverage and Extracontractual Counsel or the marketing "Superlawyers" convey any notability, for example. TJRC (talk) 22:15, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete largest claim to notability seems to be running the 178th-largest law firm in the United States (from Goldberg Segalla), otherwise an unremarkable career by encyclopedic standards. At most, merge into Goldberg Segalla but even then I'm not sure it's worthwhile. 49ersBelongInSanFrancisco (talk) 06:07, 2 January 2017 (UTC)
