Preparing for the ups and downs of the market, we succeed and survive
Seward Henderson PLLC is a new and expanding law firm based in downtown Royal Oak. We are a new generation of skilled advisors and courtroom practitioners, dedicated to leading our clients down a better path. We represent a broad spectrum of local and national clients, including individuals, municipal entities and employees, professional sports and entertainment venues, insurance companies, property management businesses, and many others. Our clients benefit from small firm attention, combined with big firm experience and expertise.
Our Team
Our multifaceted and diverse skill set enables us to handle cases from beginning to end. Our team consists of advisors with experience in evaluating cases and recommending result-oriented, cost-efficient solutions. We are litigators with experience in investigating and working up cases, utilizing discovery mechanisms and arguing motions to lay the groundwork for favorable outcomes, and seeing the big pictures without losing sight of details. We are trial attorneys with experience in reading juries, anticipating and overcoming evidentiary pitfalls, thinking on our feet and making sound decisions on the fly, and securing favorable verdicts. We are appellate practitioners with experience in identifying which facts to stress and which arguments to pursue on appeal, researching complex and novel issues, and using written word and oral advocacy to persuade panels of appellate judges to affirm or reverse decisions of trial judges.
Our Services
Our firm offers a wide range of services, including appellate practice in the US Supreme Court, 6th Circuit Court of Appeals, Michigan Supreme Court, and Michigan Court of Appeals. We handle general litigation, personal injury defense, insurance coverage, employment, property preservation, municipal police liability, zoning, planning & land use, public buildings, highways & sidewalks, risk assessment, investigation, assessment of exposure valuation, and recommendations.
Why Choose Us?
We are trial attorneys, not just litigators. When trials are on the horizon and settlements are outside the realm of possibility, many litigators turn cases over to experienced trial attorneys. At Seward Henderson PLLC, we are experienced trial attorneys. Our proven record of success at trial is evidence of our expertise. Trial experience is necessary for evaluation, litigation, settlement, and trial. We have the experience and expertise necessary to evaluate your case, make informed decisions during discovery, take a strong position on a fair settlement during negotiations, and anticipate what will and will not resonate with a jury. We will not pressure you to settle a winnable case, make you pay for different attorneys to get caught up to speed whenever a trial is in the pipeline, or be afraid to enter the ring, put up our dukes, and fight for you.

This detrimental behavior diminished the firm's reputation, leading to a dismal one-star rating.

Under stressful circumstances, Seward Henderson's representation proved pivotal in securing a case victory. Schneider's glowing five-star review reflected the firm's excellence, highlighting the lawyers' professionalism and dedication.
