​I provide people with focused, experienced and personalized legal representation in employment law, personal injury, and insurance law. I proudly serve clients in South Charleston and Charleston, Greater Kanawha Valley, West Virginia; Morgantown, West Virginia; Newfoundland/West Milford Township, New Jersey; and Lawrence County, Ohio as well as throughout West Virginia, North Jersey and Southeastern Ohio.

I am committed to being local, accessible, and available when clients need me most. Virtual, home, and hospital appointments are offered—including evenings and weekends when necessary—so that legal help is always within reach.

​

With many years of experience in employment, injury, and insurance law, I provide each client with direct, personal attention. My practice is built on commitment, accessibility, and results.

 

Every case is handled with frequent personal communication, care, focus, and a dedication to achieving the strongest possible outcome.

I have successfully handled significant cases ranging from matters of personal injury and wrongful death to matters of wrongful termination and sexual harassment. My cases have been reported in legal reporters and the news media.   I pay personal attention to your case, and will go to trial and appeal if the case cannot be fairly settled. My goal is to provide every client with exceptional legal service.

​

I take the time to understand your case, explain your options clearly, and pursue the strongest possible outcome. I also innovate in utilizing the latest technology and techniques. Most cases settle, but, if necessary, I see your case through trial and appeal.  I provide exceptional localized service always while the latest technology makes it easier than ever to handle your case efficiently and effectively wherever you may be.
​
While legal matters and litigation can be stressful, I employ the most modern techniques when necessary to make the process as convenient as possible when best for the client, including but not limited to virtual meetings and appointments, electronic messaging and email.    At the same time, phone and in-person consultations are also available. Letting you know you are not alone in your fight.

​

You want your case handled by the lawyer you contacted, not someone else.  I will be personally involved in handling your case. I handle a deliberately limited case load, so every client receives direct access, timely communication and focused advocacy. Clients deal with a highly qualified and experienced attorney during a stressful time and can expect exceptional results and satisfying experience. 
 

I also regularly accept referrals from other attorneys and co-counsel opportunities in employment, personal injury, wrongful death and insurance litigation.
