CHARLESTON – Warner Law Offices PLLC has been selected for the 2016 West Virginia Excellence Award by the American Economic Institute.
Warner Law Offices was recognized as having enhanced the commitment and contribution of small business through service to its clients and community.
“This award shows that Warner Law Offices has demonstrated a high level of commitment to both our clients and our community,” Warner Law Offices Marketing Director Tara Bartlett told The West Virginia Record.
Warner Law Offices said in a news release that it has consistently demonstrated a high regard for upholding business ethics and company values, and the recognition by AEI marks significant achievement as a leader within its field.
“This award proves to us that we have the right business model in place and we have put the right people in place to make sure that we meet the needs of every client and our community,” Bartlett said.
The AEI is an authority on researching, evaluating and recognizing companies across a wide spectrum of industries that meet its standards of excellence. It has spearheaded the idea of independent enterprise and entrepreneurial growth allowing businesses of all sizes to be recognized locally and encouraged globally.
“AEI conducts business surveys and industry research to identify companies that have achieved demonstrable success in their local business environment and industry category,” Bartlett said.
Warner Law Offices handles accident claims for injured drivers, miners, oil and gas workers, loggers, construction workers and hospital patients through personal injury lawsuits and wrongful death litigation.
According to its website, a majority of Warner’s referrals come from past clients who tell their families, friends and co-workers about the positive results the firm achieved for them.
“Our clients receive the compassion and respect they deserve, and we fight hard to get them maximum compensation for their injuries,” the firm said on its site.
In the community, Warner Law Offices supports the Pro Bono Referral Project, which is supported by Legal Aid of West Virginia and provides free and/or reduced cost legal representation for low-income citizens.
In addition, Warner said it has dedicated thousands of dollars to the firm’s booster seat program, which provides child safety seats to families in need of financial assistance. Similarly, the Warner Family Foundation is a generous supporter of programs and special projects in the region, providing sponsorships to help nonprofit organizations achieve their goals.
Warner Law Offices serves a statewide clientele in personal injury and employment claims on a contingent fee basis. The firm said its past record of success enables it to commit significant investigative and forensic resources to the development and presentation of a case.
The firm also helps personal injury clients find appropriate medical treatment.
AEI said it places particular emphasis on “meeting and exceeding industry benchmarks for customer service, product quality and ethical practices.”
“Industry leading standards and practices have been developed and implementation of the same has been pioneered by the dedicated efforts of the business community and commerce leadership,” the institute said on its website.
