A proud native of the metro Detroit area, Mr. Waldman has always had a strong drive to advocate for others. He earned his BA in International Relations from Michigan State University in 2013 and went on to graduate from Michigan State College of Law in 2016. After passing the Michigan Bar Exam, Mr. Waldman began his legal career as a defense attorney, representing fault parties, including individuals, corporations, and insurance companies, in lawsuits filed across Michigan.

During his two years as a defense attorney, Mr. Waldman witnessed the many challenges faced by injured parties—particularly the blockades put up by the defense and the numerous delays and denials that often hindered their access to justice. This experience motivated him to shift his focus and become an advocate for those who have been wronged. In 2018, he transitioned to representing injured individuals, dedicating his practice to fighting for clients' rights and ensuring they receive the justice and compensation they deserve.

With a deep passion for representing his clients and standing up against unfair treatment, Mr. Waldman has established himself as a trusted personal injury attorney. His work has earned him recognition on Super Lawyers' "Rising Stars" list from 2019 to 2025 and he is also a member of the Michigan Association for Justice.

Mr. Waldman is committed to using his skills and experience to stand up for his clients in their fight for justice and fair treatment.
