Stories of People Just Like You

 
I highly recommend Ryan Ashworth. He was recommended to me by another lawyer who had a conflict of interest and was unable to represent me. Ryan took my case and worked on it with a sense of urgency.
 
He was knowledgeable and had a clear understanding of the law that applied to my case. He understood his client’s vulnerability; he was respectful, courteous, and kind.

Ryan Ashworth is the #1 BEST ATTORNEY! From our first meeting, he explained everything in terms easily understood, and was always very responsive. He is very knowledgeable, confident, detail-oriented, approachable, and professional.

His guidance was outstanding. He was open for calls, updates, and did an excellent job in all aspects of my case. Look no further, I highly recommend Ryan Ashworth, Attorney at Law!

He was recommended to me by another attorney who is very established and respected in the area. I haven’t been disappointed. He knows his laws and anything he’s not sure about there is no smoke being blown.

You know what you’re getting here and there’s been nothing but quality. Extremely professional and would recommend. Very affordable in regards to attorneys as well. Two thumbs up

Hiring The Marine Lawyer means you don’t pay a dime unless we win your case. I work on a contingency fee basis, which means my payment comes as a percentage of your settlement or verdict—not out of your pocket. I don’t believe in financial barriers to justice. You deserve an aggressive advocate without the stress of upfront legal fees. Whether your case is in Ohio or West Virginia, I fight with everything I’ve got to secure the maximum compensation you deserve.

Time is critical. In most cases, you have two years from the date of your accident to file a lawsuit. But the sooner you act, the better. Insurance companies start working against you the moment an accident happens. I know because I used to be on their side. Now, I use that knowledge to fight for you. Call me as soon as possible so we can build the strongest case and maximize your compensation.

Absolutely not—at least not before talking to me. Insurance companies don’t offer fair deals upfront—they offer the lowest number they think you’ll accept. I spent years defending them, learning their playbook, their tricks, and their pressure tactics. Now, I use that insider knowledge to hit them where it hurts and ensure you get every cent you deserve. If you accept their first offer, you could be leaving thousands—or even millions—on the table. Let’s talk before you sign anything.
