I wanted to share a great experience I had with Manchin Ferretti Law Group. After a car accident, I was feeling overwhelmed and unsure of my next steps. The insurance company for the other driver wasn't being very helpful, and I wasn't sure if I was being taken advantage of.
I decided to reach out to Manchin Ferretti based on their positive Google reviews. I was immediately impressed by the paralegal's helpfulness and the attorney Laura Davis's willingness to take the time to review my case. Even though she couldn't personally help me, she provided valuable guidance and resources.
I'm so grateful for her help and the peace of mind it gave me. If you ever need legal assistance, I highly recommend Manchin Ferretti Law Group.

Ron and host paralegal Danielle are the absolute best personal injury attorney in the area. Not only did they work their hardest on my case, they made sure I had the best care recovering and that I didn’t have to worry about anything during the process. Danielle was always available to call for updates on my recovery process or injury updates and in the end Ron was able to get the most he could for me and my upcoming future with my injuries. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the results he provided. He knows what he’s doing and he won’t lie to you. He’s one of the good guys.

- Dedication, commitment, knowledgeable, perseverance, trustworthy, and kindness are just a few quality traits I would use to describe Attorney Ron Harmon. His great analytical skills and creativity assisted him in preparing thousands of pages of medical documentation for my case in just 2 1/2 months. He set a record in court by submitting the most supportive exhibits (90). The judge even commended him on his hard work and dedication. He goes above and beyond any expectations and genuinely cares about not only your case but about you as a person.
- Along with Attorney Harman, his legal team that consist of a Windy and Danielle, are also very knowledgeable, dedicated, and hardworking. Most matters requiring an attorney are already very stressful, however Attorney Harman and his team work together to win your case in a professional, calm and stress free environment.
I’d like to say thank you to Ron, Windy, Danielle for the outstanding job they did and to Sarah for being helpful and greeting you with a hello and a smile. I would also like to thank Attorney Mike Burke for his referrals and assistance in several matters over the last 18 years.
When in need for an attorney my recommendation would definitely be Ron Harman and team at Burke-Schultz-Harman & Jenkinson.
Sincerely
Rhonda

After my initial denial for social security disability, I did what most do, l googled lawyers specializing in social securit disability claims. I randomly picked Ronald Harman and, boy, did I get lucky. But, more so than lucky, choosing Mr. Harman was the best possible choice as my legal representation that I could have done.
I contacted the law office and within several hours, Mr. Harman himself returned my call. We just briefly discussed my need for a lawyer and he had his legal assistant, Windy schedule an appointment.
My initial meeting with Mr. Harman was extremely thorough. He, point blank, informed me that he would not take on my case if he thought he couldn't win it.
His legal knowledge of the Social Security Administration, in particular, the legal aspects of the disability insurance claims portion, was overwhelmingly spellbinding. From knowing the simplest issues of forms to the more critical issues of what is necessary from physicians, what type of Physicians in conjunction with my illnesses, etc. It was imperative to him that the flow of communication between myself and his office be fluent. I never hesitated to contact the office with any questions and was never not contacted in a timely fashion.
The more that we met, the more comfortable I felt with Mr. Harman.
Three weeks prior to my hearing he scheduled what he thought would be a critical examination with a physician, other than my own. And it ended up being significantly critical to my claims outcome.
That same week, we had our final meeting before my hearing. Afterwards, I felt extremely comfortable and ready for my hearing.
The morning of the hearing, he ask if there were going to be any surprises for him, did I have any last minute questions, did I feel comfortable, was I okay?
He had me so extensively prepared for the hearing, and I had no doubt that he was.
Entered the conference room, proceeded with all of the legal necessities, and then the judge offered that he was going to make an off the record fully favorable decision but for one question. Once he asked me the question, talked to the Vocational Expert and Mr Harman for a few minutes and then announced a bench decision of fully favorable. Mr. Harman had succeeded at what he had set out to do, win my claim.
There is so much information that I could address here, but I just wanted the public to know, first hand, from a client, that you cannot go wrong if you choose Mr. Harman as your legal representative for your Social Security disability insurance claim.

Amanda Lewis was confident and prepared for my unusual situation regarding my divorce. I had a post nuptial agreement which she contested since I had issues at the time of the signing of the agreement. She went above and beyond doing a lot of research to see if the agreement could be invalid. Unfortunately there was only one or two cases regarding post nuptial agreements. I decided to settle for what I was entitled to and a little bit more. I was extremely grateful for her guidance and support in helping me get through my recent divorce. I would use her for any futures cases.

I hired attorney. He became a very different person father consultation. Calais, doesn’t like questions, doesn’t like to repeat himself, called me names, and bad advice. While I paid him thousands of dollars, he tried to intimidate me and threaten to quit and walk out on me several times just for asking questions or not understanding. Took actions for me without consulting or teaming with me. This lawyer appears to have “a king of his own empire mind set.”

Mr. Logsdon... honestly, the greatest attorney ever! I was hesitant at first, whether I even needed a lawyer or not. My case seemed a little silly to me.. but, I would have been hung out to dry without him! He is straight to the point. Whether I liked it or not!! He was honest and professional. He never promised me anything, but believed in my case. Which made me believe in him. Hands down the best lawyer I could have ever chosen to represent me.
Thank you, again!

My husband and I were brought into a horrible situation dealing with CPS of WV and my appointed attorney was Mr. Santa Barbara. The moment I started to speak with Missy I felt some type of ease that my case was in the right hands. I have never been in this type of situation ever and you could imagine it is the most horrible thing to endure. As of today December 6 2024 our case was DISMISSED!!!!! I just want to thank Mr. Santa Barbara for proving our innocence in this matter. I also want to thank Missy. Missy, thank you. The feeling you gave me to feel confident that he had my back as well as you made me feel seen and heard. You both gave me my hearts back and not the number 1 hearts, but the 5 that call ME MOM!!! Thank you BOTH so much!!! Truly.

I have been a client of The Riddell Law Group PLLC and can confidently say that Christian Riddell is an exceptional attorney. He advocates passionately and fights for what is right, holding his oath to a high standard. He is not afraid to challenge anyone who is wrong, and his dedication to justice is evident.
The secretary and paralegals at The Riddell Law Group PLLC are wonderful. They go above and beyond to help you, ensuring that you feel supported and informed throughout the process. Their assistance is truly appreciated.
Christian Redall’s prices are very reasonable, and he communicates with the utmost respect. He is straightforward and honest, never hesitating to let you know how he feels. Balancing the roles of a lawyer, husband, and father while serving the community is undoubtedly challenging, and he handles it with remarkable dedication.
It’s important to note that Mr. Redall often travels to handle court cases outside of the state, which, along with having a small team, may contribute to occasional communication challenges. Despite this, he is committed to adjusting and improving communication to ensure that clients receive regular updates and feel supported.
I believe that Christian Redall is one of the best attorneys to represent you in a CPS case. He has fought for me and continues to fight for me, demonstrating his unwavering commitment to justice and his clients.

Charged for something that wasn't mine thanks to Nicola. Thanks for a record at 23 years old with two babies for something that wasn't even mine and was already admitted. I have the rest of my life ahead of me. I would rate Nicola Negative stars if there were an option to do so. Don't you want to save people from charges they didn't commit? I thought that was the point. Thanks for putting a charge on my record that wasn't even initially mine even after the other party admitted so. Worst. Public. Defender. Ever. If she did her job correctly, I wouldn't have been charged for something that wasn't anything to do with me. She doesn't care. It's written all over her face, and voice.
If they want to, they will.
Hopefully she learns the point of her job before she ruins everyone's record and allows you to be charged for things you honest to God had nothing to do with.
Let it be her though...she wouldn't have let herself or her daughter be charged for something she had nothing to do with.

I have had nothing but great, positive experiences with Christian Riddell. He made me a promise that he would fight for my son, and he's delivered every single time. This last case went from state to Federal & as we all know you don't beat their charges. Christian put a ton of time & work into our case, worked hard & it paid off in the courtroom. Justice did prevail & finally we now have a lawyer who is fair, works hard for his clients & gives his all. Our family will forever be grateful for what he's done for us.
It's up to the client to follow up & set up meetings to get up to speed on your case. The negative comments are so hard to believe because we received the absolute opposite representation. Five Stars from us!

This attorney was appointed to represent my daughter. He never contacted her. He would not return my calls if I was able to leave a message. Several times his mailbox was full. I finally friended him on FB and he accepted the request.
He was running for an elected office at the time.
I have picked up a packet to file a formal complaint with the WV judicial board.
Advised my daughter and spoke (the one time he answered the phone)and sent him a msg via msgr requesting new counsel be appointed. That was in March, motion filed in May.
Today she was appointed new counsel.
Would not recommend.
I wrote this on behalf og my daughter.

He represented me in a divorce. He was completely professional, though he does enjoy kidding around. He kept me up to date on what was going on behind the scenes. He was somewhat expensive, but he has plenty of experience, and that does not come cheap. I will not say that he made the experience enjoyable, but I definitely would hire him again.

My appointment was at 10:30, He walked in at 10:50, took me back a few minutes later… Talked to me for a few minutes and proceeded to show me a YouTube video on how men and women's brains are wired differently… The video was 8 1/2 minutes in when he got a call from his secretary reminding him that he had a dentist appointment in a few minutes. He stopped the video and talked to me for a couple more minutes before walking me out.... Let's just say I got what I paid for (it was a free consult).

What a Personal Injury Lawyer Can Do for You
A personal injury lawyer specializes in helping individuals who have been physically or emotionally injured due to the negligence or wrongful actions of another party. Whether you've been hurt in a car accident, suffered a slip and fall, or experienced medical malpractice, a personal injury attorney works to ensure you receive fair compensation for your injuries. They can help you recover damages for medical bills, lost wages, pain and suffering, and other related expenses.
Personal injury lawyers act as your advocate, navigating the legal system on your behalf and dealing with insurance companies to ensure you get the compensation you deserve. They understand how to handle complex legal matters and help you avoid common pitfalls.
When Should I Hire a Personal Injury Lawyer?
Hiring a personal injury lawyer can be beneficial in many situations where you've been harmed due to another's negligence. Some key scenarios include:
- Severe injuries: If you've suffered significant or permanent injuries that result in substantial medical bills, a lawyer can help ensure you are fairly compensated.
- Long-term or permanent disability: Injuries that affect your ability to work or require ongoing medical treatment are complex, and a lawyer can help estimate long-term damages.
- Disputed liability: If the responsible party or their insurance company denies liability for your injury, a lawyer can gather evidence and advocate on your behalf.
- Insurance company lowball offers: Insurers often try to settle personal injury claims for as little as possible. A lawyer can negotiate to get you a fair settlement.
- Medical malpractice claims: Injuries caused by a doctor, nurse, or healthcare provider due to negligence require a personal injury lawyer experienced in medical malpractice law.
- Exposure to hazardous substances: If you've been injured due to exposure to toxins, chemicals, or dangerous substances, a lawyer can help pursue legal action.
Hiring a lawyer early in the process is crucial, especially if you're unsure of the full extent of your injuries or damages.
What Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Do?
A personal injury lawyer provides a wide range of services to guide you through the legal process and maximize your compensation. They can:
- Evaluate your case: A lawyer will assess the strength of your claim and determine whether you have a viable case.
- Investigate the incident: Gathering evidence such as police reports, witness statements, medical records, and expert opinions is key to building a strong case.
- Negotiate with insurance companies: Lawyers handle communications with insurance companies to ensure you receive a fair settlement and aren't taken advantage of.
- File a lawsuit if necessary: If a fair settlement can't be reached, the lawyer can file a personal injury lawsuit on your behalf and represent you in court.
- Help calculate damages: This includes medical expenses, lost wages, future medical needs, pain and suffering, and emotional distress.
- Prepare and file legal documents: Lawyers handle all the paperwork and deadlines associated with your case, including filing motions and discovery requests.
- Represent you at trial: If your case goes to trial, the lawyer will argue your case before a judge and jury to obtain the compensation you deserve.
How Are Personal Injury Lawyers Paid?
Most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis. This means they only get paid if they win your case, either through settlement or a court judgment. Here’s how it works:
- Contingency fee percentage: The lawyer will take a percentage of the settlement or award, typically between 25% and 40%, depending on the complexity of the case and the stage at which it's resolved.
- Costs and expenses: In addition to the contingency fee, the lawyer may deduct other costs associated with the case, such as filing fees, expert witness fees, and court costs. These expenses are often advanced by the lawyer and repaid out of the settlement.
- No upfront payment: Since the lawyer’s fee is contingent on winning, you usually don’t pay anything upfront.
Always discuss the lawyer’s fee structure during your consultation to avoid surprises.
How Much Does a Personal Injury Lawyer Cost?
The cost of hiring a personal injury lawyer depends on the specifics of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure. However, since most personal injury lawyers work on a contingency fee basis, the amount you pay will depend on the outcome of your case. Here are some general guidelines:
- Contingency fees: Typically range from 25% to 40% of the settlement or award. The percentage may increase if the case goes to trial or requires an appeal.
- Other costs: In addition to the lawyer's fee, you may be responsible for case-related expenses such as expert witness fees, medical record retrieval fees, and court costs. These are often deducted from your settlement, so you won't have to pay out of pocket.
While the cost may seem high, hiring an experienced lawyer can significantly increase the amount you recover, making it a worthwhile investment.
Top Questions to Ask a Personal Injury Lawyer
Before hiring a personal injury lawyer, it's essential to ask questions to ensure you’re choosing the right representation. Here are some important questions to ask:
-
What is your experience with personal injury cases like mine?
Make sure the lawyer has handled cases involving similar injuries or accidents. -
What is your fee structure?
Clarify whether the lawyer charges a contingency fee and what percentage they will take from any settlement or award. -
How long will my case take?
While it's hard to predict, a lawyer can give you an estimate based on similar cases they’ve handled. -
How often do you take cases to trial?
Some lawyers prefer to settle quickly, while others are more comfortable going to court if necessary. -
Will you personally handle my case?
In larger firms, junior lawyers or paralegals may handle some aspects of your case, so it's important to know who will be managing your claim. -
Do you have references from past clients?
Speaking with past clients can provide valuable insight into the lawyer’s effectiveness and professionalism.
How to Check the Credibility of a Personal Injury Lawyer
To ensure you’re hiring a credible personal injury lawyer, take the following steps:
- Check bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed and in good standing with your state’s bar association. Look for any history of disciplinary actions.
- Read client reviews and testimonials: Online platforms like Avvo, Martindale-Hubbell, and Google reviews can provide insight into the lawyer's reputation and client satisfaction.
- Look at their track record: Review their experience with personal injury cases, particularly how many cases they’ve successfully resolved or taken to trial.
- Ask for references: Credible lawyers should be willing to provide references from past clients who can vouch for their work.
- Check professional memberships: Lawyers who are members of respected organizations, like the American Association for Justice (AAJ), often have a solid reputation in the field.
What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?
To get the most out of your first meeting with a personal injury lawyer, prepare the following:
- Detailed account of the accident: Write down everything you remember about the incident, including dates, times, and locations. Include any witnesses or police reports if available.
- Medical records and bills: Bring any documentation of your injuries, treatments, and associated medical costs.
- Insurance information: Provide your insurance details and any communication you’ve had with the other party’s insurance company.
- Employment and income records: If your injury has impacted your ability to work, bring proof of lost wages or reduced earning capacity.
- Photos or videos: If you have photos of the accident scene, your injuries, or property damage, bring them to your consultation.
- Questions for the lawyer: Prepare a list of questions to ask, including how the lawyer will handle your case and what you can expect in terms of timeline and outcome.
By preparing thoroughly for your first consultation, you’ll help the lawyer understand your case more quickly and get a better sense of your legal options.
