Tabor Lindsay & Associates - Charleston, WV

The Doctor is Always In: Unique Medical-Legal Representation

Tabor Lindsay & Associates stands alone in the West Virginia legal landscape as a firm where the lawyers are also doctors. Located at 1223 Virginia Street East in Charleston's East End, this unique practice was founded on the belief that the best representation for medical injuries comes from those who truly understand medicine. Dr. Richard Lindsay (M.D., J.D.) and Dr. Pamela Tabor Lindsay (M.D., J.D.) bring a combined wealth of medical and legal knowledge that is unmatched in the region. This dual expertise allows them to instantly evaluate the technical aspects of medical malpractice, birth injuries, and wrongful death cases without the delay of consulting outside experts.

For clients, this means having an advocate who can read a medical chart as fluently as a legal statute. The firm specializes in complex cases involving surgical errors, misdiagnoses, and hospital negligence. They also handle significant personal injury and product liability matters, particularly those involving defective medical devices. At Tabor Lindsay & Associates, clients are treated like family, not files. The team understands the physical and emotional toll of a catastrophic injury because they have treated patients in emergency rooms and hospital wards before fighting for them in the courtroom.
