Patten, Wornom, Hatten, & Diamonstein, L.C.

PWHD has become nationally and locally renowned for its history and experience. The firm's lawyers have successfully combined the traditional practice of a full-service, private law firm with the specialized experience of a boutique litigation practice. PWHD is dedicated to fulfilling the legal needs of businesses and individuals alike.

Unlike many firms, PWHD's attorneys practice on both sides of the proverbial aisle, representing both businesses and individuals, plaintiffs and defendants. We have successfully represented plaintiffs in personal injury, product liability, and wrongful death lawsuits, while at the same time representing businesses in transactional litigation, business formation, mergers and acquisitions, commercial and residential real estate transactions, rezoning and site planning, employment litigation and a host of other legal subject matter. We believe this unique mix gives our attorneys a unique, birds-eye, perspective of the concerns, motivations, and desires of both types of parties and enables us to serve our clients in a more complete manner.
