Serving Pennsylvania Residents
for More Than 30 Years

About Our Injury Law Firm

Drake, Hileman & Davis, PC, with a concentration in personal injury law, has been serving the residents of Pennsylvania and New Jersey for more than 30 years. Our attorneys are unwavering advocates for accident victims and their families, handling each case with the same focus, attention to detail and steadfast commitment to securing maximum compensation for our clients’ losses. If you have been injured or lost a loved one through the negligence of another, we understand that you have questions.  We have your answers and we appreciate the opportunity to help you recover financially for your losses and harms. We will never ask you to settle for less than you deserve, and if the time comes we will be fully prepared to take your case to trial.

Personal injury disputes are among the most common, but they are not always straightforward or simple.  In fact, the umbrella term “personal injury” includes a broad range of cases that each require a different approach.  The key to success, then, is a thorough investigation of the facts and a willingness to evaluate all potential strategic options.

While Drake, Hileman & Davis is largely an accident and negligence law firm, our attorneys are full service general practice attorneys serving clients out of our offices in Allentown, Bethlehem, Doylestown, Easton and Stroudsburg.  Our additional practice areas include estate planning and estate administration, business, banking and corporate law, non-profit law, real estate and municipal law, family law and criminal law. We endeavor to provide prompt and professional legal service at reasonable rates through automation and an efficient support staff. Our clients include individuals, local businesses and religious organizations, so we encourage anyone in Pennsylvania or New Jersey to give us a call.

The attorneys at Drake, Hileman & Davis, PC, have well over a century of combined legal experience to handling a variety of cases from personal injury and wrongful death claims in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, to addressing complex estate planning and administration.s have been involved in representing the legal needs of individuals throughout all phases of their lives.
