Attorneys Who Keep the Courtroom in Mind

When you become our client, we will work tirelessly to build the strongest case possible. In personal injury matters, we collaborate with seasoned experts, conduct in-depth investigations and use diagnostic tests to gain every advantage by fully understanding the evidence.

As we prepare our cases, we always consider the courtroom. Our attorneys spend a great deal of time in court, so they know the best strategies to effectively present cases to judges and juries. This approach has brought us a great deal of success, and we have been recognized consistently for our achievements in the courtroom and beyond.

Attorney Gary Nitsche was nominated as a 2007 Super Lawyer by Philadelphia Magazine in the areas of personal injury and workers' compensation. He was also recognized as one of 2004's Best Lawyers in Delaware and is a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, a prestigious group of lawyers who have won verdicts and settlements in excess of a million dollars.

Attorneys Joseph Weik and Shawn Dougherty have been selected as "top lawyers" by Delaware Today Magazine, and Ms. Dougherty was recognized in 2007 for her family law practice by the publication "The Best Lawyers in America." In addition to these honors, our firm is AV®-rated* under Martindale-Hubbell's peer review rating system.
