WE REPRESENT THE TRUTH
Since even before we started Whitehead & Chiocca more than 15 years ago, we've been committed to finding and defending the truth. After 9/11, when family members of victims needed representation in court, Mr. Whitehead's prerogative was to listen to their stories.
Their experiences were bits of truth that needed the light of day not only in the name of justice but also for posterity. Whenever we open the truth to the public, we are making a difference.
Ms. Chiocca feels the same drive to make a difference when privately representing teachers after a terrible misunderstanding at school threatens to upend their lives. You’ll see we fight passionately for our clients.
If the truth goes unheard, it gets buried and becomes more difficult to uncover. We feel a duty to uncover it — it's our way of improving the community. We raise awareness of safety measures and combat injustice, especially if you've suffered an injury in a car accident and need to be heard. Come to our office and tell us your story.
