Our Philosophy

Some firms offer to handle everything from traffic tickets to medical malpractice cases. At Puryear and Lingle, we concentrate our practice in several specific areas: Business Law, Employment Law (including Whistleblower Law), and Elder Law. Each Attorney is committed to maintaining in-depth knowledge of the various laws and statutes involved in these areas of practice, and to keeping abreast of all the significant legal issues in their field. As a result, they are frequently asked to serve as lecturers in continuing legal education programs and to provide professional commentary on news programs and in other venues. These are the lawyers who handle your matter. Cases don't get passed off to paralegals or others to do the work.

Our approach translates into individualized attention for each of our clients, both businesses and individuals. Our attorneys work directly with our clients to achieve their goals. As a client of Puryear and Lingle, you can feel free to call or come in at any time and speak to the attorney handling your matter. Every client is important to us!

Our primary goal in every matter we handle is to achieve the BEST POSSIBLE OUTCOME FOR OUR CLIENTS! We are dedicated to providing aggressive, professional representation for all our clients, as well as staying on the cutting edge of legal technology which might give us an advantage both in and out of the courtroom. And our attorneys regularly work together on most matters, forming a veteran legal team that vigorously pursues the rights of our clients and gets the job done.

We aren't afraid to take on the big companies. With decades of experience in negotiating deals, reaching settlements, and litigating cases at the trial and appellate levels in both state and federal courts, our attorneys provide formidable representation both in and out of the courtroom. We regularly represent clients against large corporate and government defendants, including Fortune 500 companies. Having faced off many times against some of the biggest companies and their lawyers, we know what to expect and can often foresee the tactics they will use, helping us to begin your case a step ahead of the opposition. Our level of determination, knowledge and commitment levels the playing field and lets our clients rest easy, knowing that we won't get pushed around.
