Personal injury law firm Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys is partnering with an Ohio-based firm for an expansion into six states.

Schuerger Shunnarah Trial Attorneys joins the well-known Birmingham attorney with Robert Schuerger II, a former legislative aide in the Ohio State House of Representatives, who started his practice in 2008.

Specializing in auto and trucking accidents, catastrophic injuries, mass torts and wrongful death, the firm opened its first office in Columbus, Ohio last year. Since then, it has opened an additional 10 offices across Ohio, Texas, Tennessee, North Carolina, Indiana and Missouri.

Alexander Shunnarah, founder and president of Alexander Shunnarah Trial Attorneys, said he is “excited” about “expanding into fresh territories across the Midwest and Southeast.”

“This partnership allows us to champion our clients’ causes with enhanced vigor and zeal,” he said.

The firm has a team of 13 attorneys across the 11 offices.

“The two firms combined creates an opportunity to reach more people in their time of need and to have the resources to go to war for them and their families,” Schuerger said.
