Firm Overview

Diligent, Effective and Compassionate

At the law firm of Stewart and DeChant, we focus on litigation to recover damages for victims of legal malpractice, nursing home injuries and accidents, and Social Security Disability claims, workers' compensation injuries and insurance bad faith claims.

Simply stated, we represent victims of wrongful conduct of any nature. Our lawyers practice regularly in state and federal trial courts, as well as appellate courts throughout Ohio and in other states. As plaintiffs' injury trial lawyers, we provide to our clients and to our co-counsel quality investigation, case preparation, legal research and skilled advocacy in and out of the courtroom. In doing so, we take pride as ethical practitioners who are diligent, effective and compassionate.

We Value Our Reputation

One of the most important ingredients in the handling of a client's case is the reputation of the plaintiff's attorney. Defense lawyers and insurance companies will consider the plaintiff's attorney's reputation for truth, diligence and success in evaluating the injured party's claim. We pride ourselves on having each of these attributes, and have worked hard to earn that reputation among defense counsel and insurance companies. Many of our attorneys have received the highest rating possible from other lawyers, including AV® ratings from Martindale-Hubbell* for every partner and listings in AVVO as a 10 of 10 rating, Best Lawyers in America, Ohio Super Lawyers and Ohio Certified Civil Trial Advocate.

Perhaps half of our ongoing case work comes from referrals from other attorneys who believe that their clients are best served by being in the hands of well-respected plaintiff's counsel. Many other cases come from referrals by former clients who appreciate the results they have obtained and the attentive service we have provided.

At Stewart and DeChant, we gain great professional and personal satisfaction from the confidence our clients place in us when referring their friends and family to us for legal matters.
