At DiPiero Simmons McGinley & Bastress, PLLC, we believe in participating in and attending local Charleston community events as often as we can. Communities hold power, and so do its people. This power can be used to lift others up who are in need of legal aid, necessities like food or shelter, or even the need to feel like they belong and that they are able to feel at ease. Community events inspire.

They can also be just plain fun. Today we’d like to share a fun story about Attorney J. Timothy DiPiero’s experience back in July 2022 at a local concert at the Charleston Sternwheel Regatta. He got to sing with the Four Tops!

During the holidays, it’s typical to want to stay inside under a blanket and drinking hot chocolate by a fire rather than braving the cold outdoors. But that doesn’t always get you in the spirit of the season. If you need to get out of the house and start feeling festive, then don’t look any further because we’ve compiled this list of holiday events in Charleston that are sure to get you in the spirit!

Now that the kids are out of school and the weather is nice, it’s time to get out of the house and keep everyone entertained. There’s plenty of events going on in Charleston this summer that will be fun for the whole family. If you’re looking for something to do on a day off or something good to eat, we did the research for you. And if you’re tight on money this summer, we also found a bunch of festivals and concerts for none of the cost but all the excitement!

The holidays are a time of celebration and cheer where we spend quality time with loved ones. In this special part of the year, we observe many traditions, including exchanging gifts and eating delicious food.

Spending a long time in a car can be exhausting for anybody, but it is especially difficult for families with young children. Crying babies, bored toddlers, extended pit stops, and limited mobility can make everyone in the car feel like the drive will never end. DiPiero Simmons McGinley & Bastress, PLLC wants every family to reach their summer vacation destination safely and as peacefully as possible.  Here are ten tips you can use to help make car travel a happy and safe experience for your family:

Think “Safety First”. Pack plenty of water and a first aid kit. Basic car safety equipment, such as properly installed car seats, a flashlight, and jumper cables, is important to have in case you experience car trouble.

With 2018 well underway, DiPiero Simmons McGinley & Bastress, PLLC is proud to announce that we’re sponsoring a few events in our community of Charleston, West Virginia. We value uplifting and sponsoring other organizations in our community because it’s important to help those who are providing and supporting others.

Hospice Tennis Tournament

This weekend we are sponsoring the Hospice Tennis Tournament at the Charleston Tennis Center. HospiceCare offers quality hospice and palliative care, and grief and loss programs. Their work is centered around helping our patients live comfortable and with dignity. Sponsoring the tennis tournament helps them hold an event to spread awareness and information about their services.
