Why Injured People Across North-Central West Virginia Call King & Perone
We're local injury lawyers. Our office is in Weston, not Charleston or Pittsburgh. We know the roads, the courthouses and the communities.
We are trial lawyers. Insurance companies settle differently with lawyers they know will go to court. We bring real courtroom experience to every accident case.
You pay nothing up front. Injury cases are handled on a contingency fee. There is no attorney fee unless we recover money for you.*
A collaborative team. Our attorneys and staff treat every case as a collaborative effort, so each client has the whole firm working for them.
Big case? We bring in the firepower it needs. In serious trucking, wrongful death and catastrophic injury cases, we may team up with other experienced trial firms. That happens only with your written agreement, and you always know who is working on your case.
Meet Our Lawyers
Dylan King, born and raised in Weston, handles fire, property disaster and toxic tort cases and high-stakes criminal defense. Nicholas Perone, from the Morgantown area, handles high-level felony cases and misdemeanors such as DUI and domestic violence, along with car accident and wrongful death cases, across Northern and Central West Virginia.
Insurance Companies Have a Plan. You Need One Too.
Within days of a crash, the other driver's insurance adjuster may call you. They may ask for a recorded statement, ask you to sign a medical release, or offer a quick check. The adjuster's job is to pay you as little as possible. Before you talk to them, talk to us. We can:
Deal with the insurance companies so you don't have to.
Gather police reports, photos, video and witness statements before they disappear.
Help you get the medical care you need and keep track of your bills.
Calculate the full value of your claim, including future medical care, lost wages, and pain and suffering.
Negotiate hard, and file suit when the insurer won't be fair.
Hurt? Don't talk to the insurance company first. Talk to us.

West Virginia Accident & Injury FAQs
How long do I have to file an injury claim in West Virginia? Most personal injury claims must be filed within two years (W. Va. Code § 55-2-12). Wrongful death claims are generally due two years from the date of death. Call early, because evidence fades fast.
What if I was partly at fault? West Virginia uses modified comparative fault. You can still recover if your fault is not greater than the combined fault of the others, but your award is reduced by your share.
How much does an accident lawyer cost? Nothing up front. We handle injury cases on a contingency fee, so there is no attorney fee unless we recover money for you.*
The other driver had no insurance. What now? West Virginia requires uninsured motorist coverage on your own policy, and it may pay your claim.
Also Facing Criminal Charges? We Defend Those Too.
We have handled hundreds of criminal cases, from DUI and domestic charges to drug trafficking, armed robbery and burglary. Criminal Defense →
