I  represent people who have been harmed physically or financially. That is all  I do and all  I have ever done in my 31 years of representing  people in Ohio, Michigan and throughout the country.  Our firm has obtained numerous multi-million dollar results and we have earned the respect of our profession and clients.  We pledge to build on this reputation every day, with every case.. Defendants are backed by powerful corporations and insurance companies. Our law firm has the resources necessary to level the playing field in all areas of personal injury and professional negligence.   We commit the necessary time, money and experience to get our clients the best results possible.

I’m a business lawyer. This means I do two things: I put to writing the deals my clients make and represent my clients when disputes arise.. I structure agreements so that the transaction—be it a commercial lease, a purchase agreement, a partnership agreement, or whatever—accurately reflects what both sides envision, protects my client’s interests, and anticipates the relevant legal issues.. But life is dynamic, and disputes arise. When they do, I’m there to represent my clients in negotiation, mediation, arbitration or litigation.. Most of my clients are medium-size, privately held companies, where the owner has a significant role in operations. Examples include: construction, manufacturing and real estate companies, community banks and a national title insurance company.. Martindale-Hubbell awarded me AV rating. I have successfully argued before the Ohio Supreme Court.. I communicate clearly and frequently with my clients. No one ever has to ask, “What’s going on with my case?” I stand behind my work, and my invoices reflect that I get the job done at the right price.. I have been published in The Columbus Dispatch op-ed and Columbus Business First viewpoint sections and maintain a blog, , where I write about a variety of social issues, ranging from the death penalty to human trafficking.

It's time for something different; a fresh and innovative approach to personal injury law.  When you walk in our lobby, you'll see the quote, "The most dangerous phrase in any language is we've always done it this way.". Communication is at the forefront of our operation.  The number one complaint about lawyers across the profession is a lack of communication between attorney and client during the course of representation.  Many personal injury firms assign "case managers" or other administrative staff to handle cases and field client calls.  I assure you this is NOT the case at the Baker Law Group.  As a boutique firm, our team is strong and well informed.  You will speak to an attorney when you have questions regarding your case.. Insurance companies are more than willing to accept your premium every month.  However, when you file a claim for fair and reasonable compensation, full cooperation is rare at best.  Tort reform, caps on jury verdicts and keeping you out of the courtroom are the mechanisms insurance companies use to reduce the bottom line. They also spending countless sums of money on advertising for a product you are legally required to purchase if you choose to drive in the State of Ohio.  For them, it's just business.  For you, it is a serious disruption in your quality of life.. We are a low volume firm.  Personal attention to our clients and their cases matter. Stretching resources results in an overall reduction in quality leading to diminished outcomes.  We are a boutique operation for a reason; quality over quantity produces the best results.  Read our reviews, they speak for themselves.. Our results are recovery driven.  Our approach is not limited to physical injuries, but also the mental and financial difficulties that stem from accident related injuries and challenges.. I very much look forward to meeting with you and reviewing your case.  At The Baker Law Group, gone are the days of allowing the insurance companies defining the process in which our clients are compensated.. Andrew S. Baker, Managing Partner

I've defended federal criminal cases for 36 years; for 18 of these years, I've been in private practice while the other 18 years were during my tenure with the Federal Public Defender's Office. My scholarship in federal sentencing resulted in my appointment to the United States Sentencing Commission's Practitioners Advisory Group in 2017.. I'm an inveterate insomniac who's up at 5:00 am to clear my head for the upcoming day. The only hobby I have is reading non-fiction books. I have a wonderful family that stands behind me in everything I do. Lastly, I have two goofy dogs that constantly remind me of how complicated we humans make life. On the professional side, if you become my client, you deal with me, and only me. You won't be shuffled off onto an associate for either court appearances or office meetings. I also believe in returning all phone calls and emails within 24 hours of receipt. I look forward to having the privilege of representing you!

I've provided decades of thorough representation in the fields of family law, litigation and attorney professional ethics matters. In family law, my experience includes representing clients in dissolution, divorce, custody and other family law proceedings. I also serve as counsel in attorney-related professional ethics matters.
