Litigators, Mediators, Trial Lawyers.
Since 1956, we have enjoyed an impeccable reputation for integrity and for the highest quality representation in trial work of all kinds. We achieved early prominence for our insurance defense work, representing both insured individuals and companies in lawsuits. Over the years our litigation practice has grown to include a wide range of claims, including professional liability claims, products liability, and commercial and business disputes.

Our litigators are veteran trial lawyers with formidable actual courtroom experience throughout Ohio and beyond. Being ready, willing and able to try cases has also lead to success mediating many complex, large damages cases. Our lawyers also serve as professional and volunteer mediators throughout Ohio and within the state and federal court systems.
