Client Reviews

I have had the pleasure of working with Mr. Pelham twice over the past seven years. He has provided my family with nothing but the best results. My relationship with the Pelham Law Firm will continue for years to come. I would recommend this law firm to any and everyone that I come across.

Adria B.

Randy Pelham was attentive and patient and very, very concerned over what we had been through. He fought for almost three years before we were able to settle at mediation. I would recommend Randy Pelham for any personal injury case because he knows what he’s doing. You don’t need to dial anything to reach him. He’s local and cares.

Jennifer B.

Randy represented my son in a very sensitive matter where he was abused by an organization. He provided the kind of excellent, aggressive representation that we were hoping for. He maintained regular contact with us for over a year, provided us with excellent advice, and was able to successfully negotiate on our behalf. Thanks, Randy!

Social Media Mistakes That Can Instantly Ruin Your Personal Injury Settlement

After an accident, life doesn't stop, and for most people, neither does social media. You might feel the urge to post about what happened, vent to friends, or simply keep up with your normal online routine. But if you're in the middle of a personal injury claim, any personal injury attorney will tell you that what you post online can be used against your case, and most people don't realize it until it's too late.
