Personal Injury 30%

Tragic and terrible injuries required the most skilled lawyering to help families whose lives have been turned upside-down.

Car Accident 10%

Despite major advances in auto safety, motorists and pedestrians still suffer life-changing injuries from collisions. Tractor-trailer trucks are still highly dangerous to many other travelers because of overworked and underpaid truck drivers pushing beyond their physical limits. Cars turning into crosswalks are another special danger to pedestrians. We represent consumers in these and all types of motor vehicle accidents.

Defective and Dangerous Products 10%

Serious injuries caused by defects in vehicles, consumer products, drugs, medical devices and other products usually can be traced back to poor design or manufacturing errors. We represent injured consumers in lawsuits that get to the bottom of what happened and help make sure it doesn't happen to anyone else.

42 years | 40 cases

10%
Wrongful Death 10%

Death to a family member caused by someone else's negligence is a special blow unlike other causes of death. Our firm understands this and works closely with families who have lost loved ones to find out what happened and bring some measure of justice to the situation. No amount of money can bring back a dead family member, but a lawsuit can do a lot of good to protect the public and to honor the deceased person.

42 years | 50 cases

10%
Litigation 5%

We represent clients in serious disputes with their former attorneys and former accountants. These professional malpractice lawsuits require careful analysis to determine if a successful claim can be brought.

Patrick Malone Recommendation

I would like to express my sincere appreciation to Patrick Malone for the manner that he handled my daughter’s case. My daughter had a hypoxic brain injury at birth due to the rupturing of my wife’s uterus. Pat did extensive research to prove that this was caused by negligence of the medical staff. ...For the past 3 years he has worked tirelessly on my daughters behalf. My wife and I could not be happier with how the case was handled and the outcome. With Pat’s help we now have the resources to provide our daughter with all the medical services that she requires. We know Pat thought of our daughter as much more than just a “client”. He was available to answer any and all questions we had and always kept us informed as to the status of the case. As you can see I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Malone and would highly recommend his legal services to anyone. William Duckworth

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
