Fighting for Justice for 40 Years In 2025, Bordas & Bordas is proudly celebrating 40 years, a testament to our unwavering commitment to serving our community and fighting for justice. Since our founding in 1985 by Jim and Linda Bordas, we’ve grown from a small practice into one of the region’s premier personal injury law firms with offices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Wheeling and Moundsville, West Virginia, and St. Clairsville, Ohio. The story of Bordas & Bordas Attorneys PLLC began with a unique partnership. Linda, a former hospital pharmacist turned lawyer, and Jim, who has been described by many as a giant in the legal profession, combined their expertise and passion for justice to open the doors of Bordas & Bordas upon Linda’s graduation from law school in 1985. Their remarkable record, including never losing a trial together, fueled the firm’s early success. Linda’s medical background proved invaluable, particularly in medical malpractice cases, where she became a leading force, securing landmark verdicts and expanding patient rights. Jim spent his career fighting battles for his clients that others couldn’t or wouldn’t fight. For over four decades, he built a reputation of success through landmark jury verdicts and settlements. In 2000, the Bordas legacy continued with the addition of Jim and Linda’s oldest son, Jamie, who became the firm’s managing partner in 2005. Jim cherished working alongside Jamie, creating a strong bond, and ensuring the firm’s values would endure. Linda remains a partner at Bordas & Bordas and continues to provide guidance and advice as we continue to fight for justice.

United States over the last 10 years resulting in 367 fatalities, 1,462 serious injuries, and over $700 million in property damage.
West Virginia is not immune from the dangers of these incidents. Many of us are familiar with the dramatic Sissonville explosion in December of last year.
The deaths of two workers in April of this year at the Tyler County Eureka Hunter Pipeline, and the July explosions at a Doddridge County fracking site are also recent examples, but they are far from the only examples.
At Bordas & Bordas, we have a significant amount of experience representing individuals harmed through these types of explosions in industrial and residential settings. Like many other types of cases, the early intervention of an experienced attorney is critical. Evidence has to be preserved and analyzed. Often, expert 
witnesses and investigators need to be obtained immediately. A variety of federal and state agencies may also be involved and gaining access to the investigative reports of these agencies is very important.
We have the right expert contacts and are experienced in collecting the relevant information and obtaining answers for our clients. If the facts warrant, we will aggressively fight for justice for the victims of these explosions.
The results in a legal case depend on a variety of factors, many of which are unique to each case. Prior results by this firm or any other do not guarantee future results. Case results presented here are illustrations of the type of work done by Bordas & Bordas and not a guarantee that any prospective case will yield any particular amount.
