Chris and Mike Newton have opened their new law practice, The Newton Firm, with an emphasis on personal injury litigation, disability claims, wills and estates and business disputes. The Newton Firm brings more than 50 years of combined legal and business experience.
Mike spent a majority of his 25-plus year career as a partner in a large regional law firm, where he represented national insurers, big box retail stores, national restaurant chains and other major corporations and businesses.
From automobile accidents, slip and fall incidents, workers compensation claims and dog bite cases to defective products and tractor-trailer accidents, Mike has a broad range of trial and litigation experience.
He is one of a small number of lawyers who has been designated as a board certified civil trial specialist by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. He has also been recognized as a Mid-South Super Lawyer since 2013.
