Who is WVM?

Wagner, Vaughan & McLaughlin has been “speaking up for the injured” — with commanding volume and authority -- since opening its first office in Tampa in 1967. Today, the firm is among the most respected plaintiffs’ personal injury law firms in the state and nation, with partners who have shown extraordinary leadership in both the courtroom and the broader profession.

Wagner, Vaughan & McLaughlin has produced many legal landmarks over the years, expansive in both number and breadth. The firm handles many types of cases and has been extraordinarily successful, on any measure.

If catalogued here, our wins over the decades would be as impressive to the layperson as to the most knowledgeable legal expert. Yet, we are proud to measure our success, most of all, by our commitment to each client individually. We have many cases, but each client has only one — and we recognize, and keep in mind everyday, that that one case is the most important case to the client.

Wagner, Vaughan & McLaughlin's commitment to clients and legal principles goes far beyond the courtroom. We routinely help underwrite efforts to maintain and strengthen the vital jury system and to fight limitations on awards for the pain and suffering of injured plaintiffs and so-called “tort reform” that favors only the negligent and powerful. Our firm and its individual lawyers are devoted to improving the lives of people in the Tampa Bay community, including through expanding legal education. To that end, we helped bring one of just three remaining copies of the Magna Carta from England to Tampa for public display at the Tampa Museum of Art.
