G&O are River, Rail & Motorcycle Lawyers.
Our Pittsburgh law firm
helps clients in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio
Our attorneys represent people and the families of people, in Pennsylvania, West
Virginia, and Ohio, and also further afield, who have been injured or killed in accidents:
On rivers,
lakes, and oceans in admiralty and
maritime claims (Jones Act negligence - general maritime law
unseaworthiness - towboat and barge accidents - drownings - drilling rig
accidents - crew boat accidents - supply
boat accidents - pleasure boat accidents - passenger boat and excursion vessel accidents)
On the railroads in FELA (Federal Employers' Liability Act) claims,
railroad track crossing collisions and accidents, and derailments
On and off the road in street motorcycle
accidents and dirt bike accidents, and
also in scooter, Vespa, ATV, "four-wheeler," or "quad"
accidents
On oil and gas drilling rigs, including on the Marcellus
Shale...we're familiar with oil and gas well drilling equipment, operations, and terminology...we know the hard
work roughnecks, roustabouts, drillers, toolpushers and other
rig hands perform and how hazardous this type of work can be
-
Personal Injury, Civil Rights,
and Consumer Protection Law
We also represent people in various
personal injury and
civil rights cases (such as excessive
force claims) and consumer protection litigation (including defective products, violations of state unfair or deceptive trade
practices acts and federal antitrust laws).
-
Contingent Fee Commercial
Litigation
Individuals and companies, particularly in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and
Ohio, may be interested in our willingness to take on
contingent fee commercial
litigation cases. In these suits, we represent plaintiffs
in breach of contract, business torts, and judgment collection
lawsuits. While we also handle this type of work on an
hourly basis, we believe a contingent fee or blended
hourly/contingent fee perfectly aligns the interests of the client
and the law firm - a concept we embrace.
-
Insurance Coverage and Bad Faith
Litigation
We also represent policyholders in
insurance coverage and bad faith
litigation and individuals and small companies in
business formation and
contract negotiation. Fred
Goldsmith has been asked to speak at seminars on the
enforceability of indemnity and insurance clauses in contracts.
