Tracy's experience includes representing the world's largest home appliance manufacturer in product liability claims across the U.S. and Canada.

Tracy's practice includes defending litigation claims involving various home appliances, ranging from dryers and washers to microwave ovens and refrigeration units.

As a West Point graduate and former Army company commander, Tracy brings leadership skills and strategic thinking abilities to litigation defense. He collaborates closely with engineers and experts to develop strong, persuasive arguments.
