Marks & Harrison is a distinguished personal injury law firm serving clients in Petersburg and surrounding areas, with a long-standing reputation as one of Virginia’s oldest and largest firms dedicated exclusively to representing the injured and disabled. Headed by veteran trial attorney Gregory S. Hooe, a Best Lawyers in America honoree, the firm stands out for its aggressive, client-focused approach and deep community involvement.
The firm employs a proactive strategy, deploying investigators—including former Petersburg police officers—immediately to build strong cases. With extensive experience in both trial and appellate courts, including the Virginia Supreme Court and U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit, they cater to individuals affected by accidents, workplace injuries, and disabilities. Their commitment to clients is underscored by a contingency fee model: no fees are charged unless a verdict, settlement, or benefits are secured.
