Bordas & Bordas Attorneys

What Bordas & Bordas Attorneys does

Bordas & Bordas Attorneys is a privately held, family-owned personal injury law firm founded in 1985 by Jim and Linda Bordas in the Wheeling, West Virginia area. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania since 2014, the firm operates four offices across three states — Pittsburgh, PA; Wheeling, WV; Moundsville, WV; and St. Clairsville, OH — serving clients throughout Pennsylvania, West Virginia, and Ohio. Jamie Bordas, son of the founders, serves as Managing Partner following Jim Bordas's death in 2019.

The firm's core offering is contingency-fee legal representation across approximately 20 personal injury practice areas, including car and truck accidents, medical malpractice, nursing home abuse, toxic exposure, product liability, premises liability, workplace injuries, wrongful death, insurance bad faith, and consumer protection. The firm advances all case expenses, requires no retainer, and offers free initial consultations, meaning clients pay nothing unless a recovery is obtained. Underlying technology is non-proprietary; the firm's competitive edge rests on attorney expertise, courtroom track record (including a $50M nursing home verdict, a $36.5M toxic tort settlement, and a $20.5M workplace discrimination verdict), and brand recognition reinforced by national media exposure and sustained community sponsorships.

The go-to-market is sales-led and relationship-driven: direct attorney consultations, a formal attorney referral program that markets the firm as a destination for major projects from peer firms, content marketing via a 278+ page blog, and extensive community partnerships (most notably the Pittsburgh Steelers "Sacks for Kids" program, which has generated over $300,000 in donations to Ronald McDonald House Charities since 2015). Client base is a long tail of individual personal injury plaintiffs; no institutional or enterprise customers exist. Revenue is performance-based through contingency fees on settlements and verdicts, with no publicly disclosed financial figures.
