When you're injured, working with a nearby firm that knows the local courts and community makes a real difference. You work directly with attorney Noah Schwinghamer and his team, not a rotating case manager at a distant national firm. Wherever you are in the region, your case gets local insight and personal attention from the first call to the final resolution.

We handle cases throughout California, with a breadth of local experience in San Joaquin County and Stanislaus County, so we can represent you wherever your case is located.

Many national or SoCal based firms advertise heavily in Stockton and surrounding areas, but only maintain “ghost offices” with no local attorneys or staff. When these out-of-town attorneys have to make court appearances, they have to book flights and/or hotel rooms —costs which they pass on to you, the client. At Schwinghamer Law, our goal is to provide world-class service along with local knowledge and experience.
