Often we are called upon to evaluate cases at the appellate level

impression in West Virginia on such distinct issues as wage and
hour law, insurance coverage, hedonic damage and jurisdiction.
We also counsel clients on litigation avoidance and offer strategies
to minimize legal exposure. Although Martin & Seibert, L.C. is well
