Paul Pearson has an extensive background in civil litigation in state and federal courts in Virginia, Maryland, and the District of Columbia. His focus includes cases involving products liability, personal injury, automobile accidents, false arrest, malicious prosecution, construction and contract litigation, and other commercial disputes.

Mr. Pearson began with the firm of Arthur & Speed in 1979, eventually becoming a partner in the firm known as Arthur, Pearson and Martin. Paul represented clients who had been injured as the result of someone else’s negligence.

During his career, Mr. Pearson has handled numerous cases of catastrophic injury, including wrongful death and traumatic brain injury.

He was subsequently appointed as Practice Group Leader, overseeing and mentoring the liability lawyers in all of Virginia, while continuing to handle his own cases.

After retiring from Travelers in March 2018, Paul joined Weiner, Spivey & Miller in September 2018, where he once again represents personal injury clients as he did in earlier private practice. Paul employs his 44 years of unique practice experience, gained from representing both plaintiffs and defendants, to provide a balanced evaluation and approach to obtaining the best possible result for injured clients.
