A dedicated and knowledgeable advocate for my injury case

I hired Stephen Skinner after a serious car accident left me with significant injuries and facing a difficult insurance company. While his profile shows he's been recognized by Best Lawyers in Personal Injury, what impressed me most was his practical, down-to-earth approach. He clearly leveraged his deep knowledge of West Virginia law, which he's been practicing since graduating from WVU in '94, to build a strong case. He was thorough in explaining the process and genuinely cared about my recovery. The outcome was very favorable and provided the security my family needed. If I had one note, it would be that communication during the initial filing phase could have been a bit more frequent, as I was anxious. Overall, I highly recommend Stephen and the Skinner Law Firm for anyone in the Portland area needing a principled and effective personal injury attorney.
