Bailey & Wyant represents clients in Charleston, in West Virginia and its surrounding states. Our lawyers thrive on challenges. Our willingness to face the most complicated cases head-on has been a key factor in our success. Since 2000, we have grown from a handful of attorneys to more than 30. This is because we successfully resolve challenges in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible.

Our team has handled toxic tort cases involving hazardous waste disposal, coal drainage and refuse problems, water and wastewater treatment systems, National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) compliance, and Mining Safety and Health Act (MSHA) violations, in state and federal court, as well as in a myriad of administrative proceedings. 

In addition to providing outstanding representation in a litigation forum, we can serve as consultants to help manage the risk of the types of environmental law and natural resource claims faced by individuals, businesses, governmental bodies, and their insurers.

Our attorneys have done a great deal of work with the coal, oil and gas, and timber industries. We can handle all legal matters pertaining to these natural resources, including property and reserves, acquisition and permitting, leases, contracts, indemnity agreements, operational agreements, employment law matters, state and federal government regulatory affairs, and more.
