With over a decade of personal injury, workers' compensation, and medical negligence experience, Samuel Pratcher has forged a great reputation as a trial lawyer. Mr. Pratcher has represented 1000s of victims injured in motor vehicle, slip and fall, at work, or medical negligence matters. Mr. Pratcher's desire to obtain just compensation for his clients is one of the things that separates him from other attorneys.
Mr. Pratcher previously worked for a regional defense law firm and represented insurance companies, which makes him aware of the tactics that insurance companies will attempt to use to lessen the value of his client's cases. As a result, Mr. Pratcher is able to advise his clients and get just compensation for their injuries.

Mr. Pratcher has received the AVVO personal injury client's choice of award from 2019 - 2023.
Mr. Pratcher focuses his law practice on plaintiffs' personal injury, workers' compensation and medical negligence.
