Meet the Delaware Attorneys Who Fight for You

The lawyers at our Delaware law firm, Weik, Nitsche, Dougherty & Componovo, have been recognized repeatedly for their many courtroom successes. 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 “Best Lawyers in America.” Chris Componovo currently serves as president of the Delaware Trial Lawyers Association, a position that Mr. Nitsche and Mr. Weik both formerly held.

Weik, Nitsche, Dougherty & Componovo has achieved seven-figure jury awards and other successes that have helped restore the lives of our clients.
