I have practiced law in the area of physican, nursing, clinic and hostpital malpractice and negligence for over 30 years.  I have had the opportunity to represent patients who sustained significant losses from poor medical care.  I have been fortunate for juries to have awarded my clients record verdicts in Hamilton County and two other adjoining counties.  Some of these record-setting verdicts were from cases that other law firms turned away as unwinable in thier opinion.  I also settle cases on behalf of clients on a frequent basis.  I would be glad to review the medical care that you or a loved one received without charge.  The firm of Rittgers & Rittgers and I are here to exceed your expectatoions.

Litigation Attorney | Jun 24
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I'm a Virginia practitioner and needed an Ohio referral so I looked online and found Mr. Shea. I was immediately impressed with his willingness to spend the time to discuss my client's prospective business litigation case. He grasped the facts quickly and came up with precisely the correct legal solution. He discussed the matter with my client over the phone and my client hired him. And now my client can't speak highly enough about how Mr. Shea handled his case (the suit against my client was dismissed after successful argument). I highly endorse this lawyer."
