Mr. Wallitsch provides dedicated and forceful advocacy to area residents who have incurred economic and noneconomic losses due to the negligence or recklessness of other people or entities. The types of cases that he has handled during his career have arisen out of incidents involving premises liability, animal attacks, and truck and motor vehicle accidents, and he has been able to obtain significant compensation for his plaintiff clients, both through jury awards and as a result of settlements, which he has negotiated out of court with defendants and their liability insurance carriers.

He is also a member of the Kentucky Bar Association and the Indiana State Bar Association.
