For nearly a half century, McDermott & Bonenberger has effectively combined the type of sophisticated and aggressive representation often associated with a larger firm, with the warmth, personal service and affordability of a smaller firm.
Recognized by legal rating services as a preeminent firm, our lawyers have not only participated in most of the largest class action tort cases in West Virginia over the past several years -- such as tobacco, Phen-fen and silica -- but have also looked after the everyday legal needs of the residents of our community.
The focus of our practice is complex civil litigation, appellate practice and alternative dispute resolution, with a particular concentration in insurance law. Our lawyers have decades of litigation and appellate experience in cases of significance here in West Virginia. As their biographies reflect, they have truly distinguished themselves in their areas of specialty, and have received the highest ratings possible from various services that rate lawyers.
Just as noteworthy, however, is the sense of community and volunteerism of our lawyers. They serve on boards and commissions of local municipalities, schools, YWCAs and local affiliates of national charities. They coach youth sports teams, direct fund raising events for charities and the arts, knowing that this balance in their lives will sharpen their perspective and enhance their ability to serve their clients.
