My law office is located in Charleston, WV. I have handled hundreds of courtroom cases throughout West Virginia state and federal courts.

It's important to understand exactly what my office does before you hire us. That requires personal communication beyond a webpage. Suffice to say I represent people in litigation. These are clients who have cases that may wind up in court. I understand going to court is stressful for many people but it's what I do and, to be honest, I enjoy making my case to a judge or jury.
Fortunately most claims settle without the need for trial. However, we believe the only way to bring a defendant to productive negotiations is for your attorney to prepare every case as if it is going before a jury. Preparing every case for trial is one of the most effective ways to resolve your claim out of court. Ultimately, however, some cases have to be tried. My office and my staff prides itself in our litigation experience. Some lawyers simply don't like trying cases. I do.
Some of the claims I handle are scientifically or technically complex. Those involving medical malpractice, products liability or catastrophic work site accidents, by example, are often especially dependent upon the quality of expert support. Our experience in proving complex claims through forensic evidence makes a difference.
I also want to make it clear that a lawsuit is not a "lottery" or "jackpot." This may turn some people off. However, the people who need my help are facing an unexpected problem. Some of my clients have lost a loved one or have been seriously hurt. Others have suffered serious financial harm because of some wrongdoing. I never forget that my income is dependent upon helping others. A "good" case as lawyers call it means something bad happened to someone who is usually a good person. I don't see this as a jackpot. Most of my clients would gladly trade their lawsuit to be put back in the position they were in before something bad happened to them.
We accept cases on a contingent fee basis. In other words, we only collect attorney's fees after we recover money following a settlement or successful trial.
