Our firm was founded in May 2004, by Stephen P. New and has helped recover
millions of dollars in compensation for our clients.

The growth of our firm did not arrive free of growing pains,
the most recent being the total destruction of our
Main Street, Beckley building in June 2020.

Even during that chaos, we were there for our clients, working their cases.

The reason why is simple: The lawyers and staff at our firm are your neighbors.
Our children go to school with your children.
We go to your grocery stores, your movie theatres, and we support your local businesses.

We’re part of this community and we care about our clients.
We’re your neighborhood lawyers and we’ll fight for you like only a West Virginian can.

We maintain an extensive staff in the office, including legal assistants and paralegals skilled in specific areas of the law. These resources equip us to handle even the most complex civil cases.
Your case will receive a high level of attention and care. Our lawyers and staff take the time to listen to our clients, striving to understand their individual needs and goals from the beginning. This enables us to customize our representation to their specific objectives and reach a resolution that is in their best interest.

As our client, you will always direct your case. We provide each client the answers and information needed to make the best possible decision for themselves,
particularly whether to settle the case early or take it to trial.

”In suits at common law, where the value in controversy shall exceed twenty dollars, the right of trial by jury shall be preserved, and no fact tried by a jury, shall be otherwise re-examined in any
Court of the United States, than according to the rules of common law.”-7th Amendment, U.S. Constitution

What does this mean for you?
You are entitled to a jury of your peers to hear your case and make a determination on liability and damages.

Each case we take on receives the same level of thorough preparation and knowledgeable insight that our clients rely on for results. We work with skilled investigators and experts who assemble the evidence needed to substantiate your claim. This proactive work and aggressive retention of evidence is key to the success of the case.

Clients know us for our ability to build strong cases that convince the insurance company to negotiate or settle.

Our Clients are the very heart of our practice. Our Staff are highly skilled, valuable assets to the firm. Our Practice never stops evolving, working and striving to offer the best work for you.
