Hammer, Ferretti & Schiavoni Firm Overview

Since 1992, our practice of law at Hammer, Ferretti, & Schiavoni has concentrated on litigation regarding medical malpractice, auto accidents, personal injuries, employment discrimination, and disability discrimination cases. We have been court approved as class counsel in many federal and state cases involving wage disputes and overtime pay issues. Our law firm is one of few engaged in plaintiff employment law. We are committed to protecting employees in everything we do.

At HF&S, we carefully screen our cases. Our lawyers are not interested in frivolous lawsuits. Rather, we are interested in cases in which someone has been genuinely harmed and another party is at fault. We are interested in cases that we believe in and are passionate about. Once we take your case, we will vigorously and zealously represent you, and aggressively litigate for the best possible outcome for you.

Our law firm is committed to delivering first rate service and results for our clients. We are available for evening and Saturday appointments. We will visit you at your home if necessary. All fees are contingent on results. Our approach is friendly and cooperative, and we strive to inform and educate our clients throughout the litigation process.

Our employment law practice concentrates on representing plaintiffs in cases of wrongful firing, including whistle blower litigation; late or unpaid wages; overtime claims; serious workplace injuries; sexual harassment; and job discrimination related to race, gender, age, and disability status. We handle cases of false claims or fraud against the U.S. government.

At HF&S, we handle all types of personal injury cases, concentrating on those related to auto accidents, or involving fractures or neck and back injuries. We handle medical malpractice issues including delay in diagnosis of cancer, wrongful death claims, and nursing home injuries, with a developed track record of excellent results for our clients.

We serve Martinsburg and surrounding areas, including Charles Town and Shepherdstown, and the Eastern Panhandle counties of Jefferson, Berkeley, and Morgan. We invite you to contact us if you have been injured in an accident, by a medical professional, or harmed by job discrimination.

At Hammer, Ferretti, & Schiavoni, our law practice concentrates on employment law, medical malpractice, and personal injury cases. We serve Martinsburg, West Virginia, and surrounding areas, including Charles Town and Shepherdstown, and the Eastern Panhandle counties of Jefferson, Berkeley, and Morgan.

Personal Injury

 In our personal injury practice at HF&S, we concentrate on car accidents involving injuries such as fractures and neck and back injuries. We fully investigate your claim, and we consult medical experts to help define the issues, plan a strategy, and present your case. We have a record of successful outcomes for our clients. Prior experience defending insurance companies gives us inside knowledge of the insurance industry, and allows us to secure all coverage available for our clients.

Medical Malpractice

We have a record of successes in medical practice cases involving failure to diagnose or delay in diagnosing cancer, hospital or physician neglect, wrongful death, and nursing home injuries.

Employment Law and Job Rights

 We represent class action cases for plaintiffs involving wage and hour disputes, and in cases of employment discrimination. Our law firm is one of the few in this area practicing plaintiff employment law, and we are deeply committed to it. As counsel for Kmart employees, for example, we won a settlement in a class action lawsuit involving the company’s misrepresentation of its worth as it affected employee benefits. We frequently represent plaintiffs in matters of late or unpaid wages, overtime claims, serious workplace injury, sexual harassment, disability discrimination, and job discrimination related to race, age, or gender.

We defend whistle blowers in cases involving government waste or fraud, such as a recent case in which a nursing home was over-billing the government for its services, and the whistle blower was fired for reporting this infringement. Under the False Claims Act, anyone who comes forward with knowledge of fraud against the U.S. government is protected from retaliation. The Act allows for an action in federal court against anyone filing false claims or defrauding the government, and we actively litigate such cases to protect the employee’s rights.

We are committed to personal service for our clients. We offer evening and Saturday appointments, and we will travel to your home if necessary. All of our fees are contingent, and you pay nothing up front. For vigorous representation if you have been harmed by an accident or by job discrimination, contact us at HF&S.
