As new bloggers, we would like to take the opportunity to welcome all viewers to The West Virginia Legal Blog. My name is David S. Hart. I am a lawyer in Beckley, West Virginia. Beckley is the county seat of Raleigh County, which is the largest of West Virginia's southern counties. I practice in a three-attorney firm, Hayden & Hart, PLLC, with Gerald Hayden and J. Mingo Winters. It is my expectation that Mingo Winters will be a regular contributor (at least weekly) to this blog. If you are interested in learning more about or contacting our firm or one of its attorneys, you can learn more or contact the firm at our firm's web site.
Hayden & Hart is a general-practice law firm that focuses primarily on litigation. We practice frequently in the areas of general civil litigation, plaintiff's personal injury litigation, domestic relations, bankruptcy and criminal defense. We also focus on real estate transactions and advising business entities on general corporate matters. We also find time to prepare wills, deeds, powers of attorney and other transactional documents. The following is a list of cases in which our firm has been involved that have been considered and decided by the West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals, our state's highest appellate court:
Certain Underwriters at Lloyd's, London v. PinnOak Resources, LLC, et al.
Sandra Lynn Lilly v. James Tyrone Foster
In re: The Marriage of Misty D.G. and Rodney L.F.
Jeremy M. Hart v. National Collegiate Athletic Association, et al.
One of the benefits of practicing law at a small firm in a small town is that maintaining a successful practice requires that you engage in a general practice that involves you in legal problems that span diverse areas of the law. This generalization will allow us to author postings that touch different areas of West Virginia law. While our practice is diverse, a substantial portion of our practice involves domestic relations cases, including actions for divorce, child support, child custody, guardianship and adoption. At least initially, my postings on this site will focus on answering questions to family law questions that readers might have. As additional posts are added, my hope is to provide commentary on other areas of the law.
Our site is intentionally open for comments. We hope to promote a frank discussion of legal issues. We do not claim to have all of the answers to all legal questions. It is our hope that this site will attract commentary and discussion from other West Virginia lawyers and lawyers nationwide. If you happen upon our site and find a post that interests you, please post a comment or drop us a line, even if it's just to tell us you don't agree. All visitors are always welcome.
