About Our Attorneys

At The Law Firm of Fitzgerald, Reese & Elliott Co., our lawyers combine more than 100 years of legal experience to better serve the legal needs of clients throughout the Lima area as well as west central and northwestern Ohio.
The earliest iteration of our firm, Baran, Piper, Tarkowsky & Fitzgerald, was established in 1946. Since then, the firm has undergone transformations and name changes. Nonetheless, we have kept our core commitment to quality legal services.
Our legal team is firmly entrenched in the Lima community and surrounding area. We live here. We work here. We are involved in the community.
The Advantage Of A Well-Rounded Legal Team
As a premier law firm, we are more than capable of addressing most legal needs you may have, including divorce and family law issues, personal injury cases, criminal charges, litigation. Each of our attorneys concentrates on specific areas of practice. However, we take a team approach to the law, which means you will benefit from the pooled resources and strengths of our entire firm.
You will also work closely with our lawyers rather than a team of paralegals or assistants. Our attorneys are accessible and highly involved in providing hands-on client service. Many have various professional distinctions to their names, such as:
- One is AV Preeminent peer-review rated* through Martindale-Hubbell, the highest rating.
- One was selected for inclusion in 2005 and 2006 Ohio Super Lawyers.
- Several have earned admission to practice before the U.S. Supreme Court.
