EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS WITH YOUR BEST INTERESTS IN MIND

Although the attorneys at Cummins Law have earned a reputation for excellent trial practice and results through their litigation skills, we commit our best efforts to resolving your problems as soon as possible without resorting to trial whenever possible. We understand how expensive litigation can be, and know that sometimes litigation may not be the best option in your case. We also understand that one never knows how a jury may rule in any given matter. For these reasons, our attorneys routinely utilize arbitration and mediation to settle disputes for clients in a more efficient manner and at a greatly reduced cost, facilitating settlements that have your company’s or your insured's best interests in mind.

From our offices in Clarks Summit (just outside of Scranton), we defend companies and clients all throughout northeastern Pennsylvania. We cover the counties that extend as far west as Williamsport, PA, as far north as the NY border, as far east as the NJ border, and as far south as the Allentown area.

More specifically, the counties we cover include Lackawanna, Luzerne, Monroe, Pike, Wayne, Susquehanna, Wyoming, Bradford, Northampton, Lehigh, Carbon, Schuylkill, Columbia, Lycoming, Montour, Northumberland, Snyder, Union, and Sullivan.
