Travis is motivated by a desire to provide families with answers to questions about why an incident occurred and a resolute belief that there is no justice without accountability. He has dedicated his career to holding accountable those responsible for causing harm so justice can be served, and families can find closure.
In November 2021, Travis helped secure a West Virginia Supreme Court ruling that reversed and remanded a lower court motion to dismiss medical negligence claims regarding a mentally ill patient that died by suicide, an effort that clarified and cemented the rights of mental health patients in West Virginia. A staunch protector of the rights guaranteed by the United States Constitution, he is known for his work seeking to hold police officers and municipalities accountable when they violate these sacred rights.
Travis’ clients know he is one of them. He’s hiked their hills, fished their streams, and played their favorite bluegrass on his banjo. A son of southern West Virginia, he routinely brings to bear his life lessons and experiences from his time in Appalachia to his personal injury law practice.
In addition to being a Bailey Glasser partner, Travis is an avid fly fisherman and a proud volunteer with Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, Inc., an organization dedicated to the physical and emotional rehabilitation of disabled active military service personnel and disabled veterans through fly fishing and associated activities.
