Personal Injury. We represent people who were injured by the fault of others.
If you or your loved one were seriously injured in a car accident, in a slip & fall, or during a workplace accident, help from an experienced personal injury lawyer is just a phone call away. Given the boutique nature of our practice, when you call about your case, you will oftentimes speak directly with your lawyer. We represent personal injury clients throughout West Virginia. In personal injury cases, we work on a contingency-fee basis meaning you owe us nothing unless a recovery is made for you.
Criminal Law. We represent people who have been charged with crimes.
Whether a high-stakes criminal case involving allegations of murder or kidnapping, a DUI, or a domestic battery charge, clients rely on us to protect their rights and defend against unwarranted prosecutions. The majority of our criminal defense cases are in Putnam County and Kanawha County. However, clients sometimes retain us to handle their defense throughout West Virginia. We provide sound, innovative defense strategies unique to the facts of your case.
