Thelma opened the Norfolk office to give people hurt in a crash one person to call, from the first conversation to the last check.
Who you’ll talk to
Each office has a lawyer who lives nearby. All three read every file.

Partner, Newport News
Cornell grew up on the Peninsula and runs the Newport News office. Families come to him after a death or a catastrophic injury, when the first job is to slow everything down.

Partner, Virginia Beach
Jocelyn leads the Virginia Beach office and takes most of the firm’s motorcycle and highway cases. She rides, and she knows what an insurer assumes about people who do.
One firm
Every note is shared, so whoever answers the phone knows your case.
Your lawyer lives in or near your town, not across two bridges.
Hard questions go to the whole group before they come back to you.
Call or write and say which office is closest. We’ll set up a time that works for you.
Talking with us costs nothing. If we take your case, the fee and any case costs are explained in writing before you sign.
