the law can be complicated

how we can help you

Personal Injury

Personal injury cases are commonly based on negligence, strict liability, or intentional wrongful acts. We can help you gather the necessary facts, organize the evidence needed to support your claims, develop legal strategies, prepare you with options, and implement the legal procedures required for your insurance and legal claims.

Wrongful Death

If you lost a loved one due to someone else’s negligence, we can help you navigate the legal process. We’ll treat you with compassion and respect and aggressively and relentlessly pursue your claim to ensure that you receive all of the financial compensation you’re entitled to.

Family Law

We represent clients in cases involving matters such as divorce, equitable distribution, alimony, spousal support, alimony pendente lite, protection from abuse (PFA) orders, child custody, child support, termination of parental rights, adoptions, and grandparent rights. Family law can be complicated when children are involved, and we’ll fight for your custody and financial rights.

Criminal Defense

It can be a terrible and life-changing experience to be arrested and charged with a crime. We understand how traumatic criminal charges can be and are here to help fight for your future. Our criminal defense attorneys will protect your rights from start to finish and fiercely advocate on your behalf if your case goes to trial.

Estate Planning and Administration

Uniontown estate and probate attorneys Benjamin F. Goodwin and Amanda M. Como are truly honored when individuals entrust them to prepare their wills, powers of attorney, living wills, property transfers or trusts to ensure that their estates pass to the ones they cherish most.

Real Estate

Buying a home is probably the single most significant investment you'll ever make. We can prepare or review all of the documents that are signed at the closing of a real estate purchase, accompany you to the closing to represent your interests, and ensure that proper procedures are followed during the acquisition or sale of the property. We can also help with title issues and advise you regarding deeds, property taxes, and estate planning.

Social Security Disability

The Social Security disability application process can be overwhelming, especially if your health is suffering. However, we can complete an initial review, collect medical evidence on your behalf, ensure that your application is completed correctly, communicate with the Social Security Administration, represent you at disability hearings, and file any necessary appeals.

Workers’ Compensation

Employees should feel safe and secure in a work atmosphere that is free from hazards; unfortunately, severe accidents still happen. If you or a loved one were injured at work, you probably have questions about the workers’ compensation claims process, getting the financial compensation you need to support your family, paying medical bills, and eventually returning to work. Our firm will fight to protect your rights and ensure that you or your loved one get the medical treatment and financial compensation they deserve.
