Wes Fulgham serves as Senior Counsel at Singleton Schreiber and is part of the personal injury group. With over 25 years of experience, Mr. Fulgham has a proven track record in litigating a diverse range of cases from inception to trial, including personal injury, wrongful death, trucking litigation, medical malpractice, commercial litigation, worker’s compensation, product liability, and insurance bad faith. Wes started in private practice at an insurance defense firm, though he soon discovered that his passion and future path was in the representation of individuals and small businesses rather than large corporations. Mr. Fulgham's extensive career spans multiple nationally recognized plaintiffs’ firms, where he has expertly managed cases with integrity from initial contact through to the most favorable resolution for his clients. His practice has been focused in the areas of medical negligence and wrongful death, as well as medical devices and pharmaceutical products. One of his landmark cases resulted in a precedent-setting decision in Mississippi wrongful death law, Dooley v. Byrd, which clarified the right of wrongful death claimants to have their case tried by their chosen attorney, rather than through counsel chosen by another heir. Wes argued before the Mississippi Supreme Court that the trial court had unfairly prejudiced his clients’ case, resulting in success on appeal for the family. Wes has represented clients throughout Mississippi, and in Alabama and Tennessee, and has recovered millions of dollars for patients and families who have received negligent medical treatment from hospitals, physicians, surgeons, and nurses who have failed to meet the duty owed to those in their care. Before joining Singleton Schreiber, Mr. Fulgham honed his skills at the nationally renowned trial firm Bullock Ward Mason and his own practice, Fulgham Law. A longtime Mississippi resident, he holds two Bachelor's degrees and a Juris Doctor from the University of Mississippi and a Master's degree from Mississippi State University. Wes resides and attends church in the Jackson, Mississippi, area and enjoys traveling, boating, coaching, and camping with his three children, Will, Nate, and Sophie.
