Biography

Todd La Neve is an avid gun enthusiast who happens to make his living as a lawyer. While he has been practicing law since 1993, firearms law became a prominent part of his practice beginning in 2017, blending his passion with his profession. In addition to counseling clients as to their 2nd Amendment rights, Todd also focuses a lot of time on defending cases involving charges arising after self-defense incidents, ensuring his clients are protected from overzealous prosecution.
Part of his regular professional obligations include representation of US Law Shield in the State of West Virginia, through which he works for members of the program. US Law Shield provides legal coverage for people who protect themselves but end up facing charges for their actions in protecting themselves. With that program, Todd lectures around the State of West Virginia on a regular basis, presenting instructional seminars to groups of citizens on West Virginia’s use of force laws and firearms related legal issues. In addition to his regular practice, Todd began a YouTube channel in February of 2024, @wvgunlaw, and regularly produces and publishes videos on topics of interest to the 2nd Amendment community.
In addition to his gun law practice, Todd is an experienced criminal defense lawyer with a busy statewide practice. He has appeared in courts in every West Virginia county during his career and has defended thousands of clients in a wide variety of cases from very simple misdemeanor matters to complex felonies. He is an A/V rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell, a legal services company that seeks input from members of the bar and judiciary in assigning attorney ratings. Todd’s rating of A in legal ability and V in ethics is the highest possible rating. He was also selected to the Super Lawyers Directory for his DUI and criminal defense skills, another prestigious recognition that is only awarded to 5% of attorneys through independent nominations and practice verification by the committee.
