Wettermark Keith

What Wettermark Keith does

Wettermark Keith is a privately held plaintiff-side law firm founded in 2003 in Birmingham, Alabama by personal injury attorneys Chris Keith and James Wettermark. The firm represents individuals and families across the Southeast in three core practice areas: personal injury (motor vehicle, medical malpractice, workers' compensation, mass torts, FELA railroad claims), Social Security Disability (SSDI/SSI denials and reconsiderations), and Veterans Disability (VA claims for Agent Orange, burn pits, PTSD, and other service-connected conditions). Services are delivered exclusively on a contingency-fee basis, with no upfront cost to clients and fees collected only from case winnings, which removes financial barriers for claimants and aligns firm revenue with case outcomes.

The firm operates from seven offices across Alabama (Birmingham HQ, Montgomery, Dothan, Huntsville), Tennessee (Chattanooga, Knoxville), and Florida (Panama City Beach), with stated service reach extending into Kentucky, Georgia, and Mississippi. Underlying capability is built on legal expertise, accident reconstruction, evidence gathering, expert witness coordination, and medical professional networks rather than on proprietary technology or AI systems. The firm discloses cumulative recoveries of $1.5B+ across 100K+ cases, with headline results including a $34.5M railroad accident verdict, $10M motorcycle, $8M auto, $6.2M medical malpractice, and $3.2M product liability matters. Combined team experience is reported at 50+ years, with 15+ years of Super Lawyers recognition across members.

Customer acquisition runs through a multi-channel mix of television and billboard advertising, Google Ads and paid search, owned website and SEO, YouTube educational video content, organic social (Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, X), and a client referral network. Lead intake is driven by free, no-obligation case evaluations via phone and online forms, with case-type-specific phone numbers. The firm reports no parent company, no subsidiaries, no funding rounds, no M&A activity, and no disclosed revenue or headcount data; ownership is partner-operated and the entity remains private after more than two decades of operation.
