Mission

When you've been injured in some type of motor vehicle accident, hurt on the job or disabled because of a major illness — it is easy to feel overwhelmed and all alone in your fight to set things right. Most people don’t know where to start, who to talk to or what to say. Most people can’t get the insurance company to listen.

And when you've lost a family member because of another's negligence, it becomes even easier to lose hope.

There is no easy quick guide to show you how to find all the parties responsible for your injuries or how to coordinate and get the most benefits you need out of their insurance companies and sometimes even your own.

At Manchin Injury Law Group, our experience with car accidents, motorcycle accidents, truck accidents, with other types of personal injury and wrongful death cases, and with social security disability claims will give you the voice you need to secure compensation and rebuild your life.
