Walker, Murphy & Nelson, LLP Information

Walker, Murphy & Nelson, LLP is a civil litigation firm representing health care providers and other litigants throughout Maryland and the District of Columbia. Our attorneys handle complex civil matters for a diverse group of individual and corporate clients. We are primarily an insurance defense law firm and count among our many clients national and international insurance companies with product lines including professional liability, automobile, homeowners, and commercial lines. In recent years, Plaintiffs’ firms and television advertisements have portrayed health care providers in the long term care arena in a biased and unfair light. Our attorneys dedicate considerable time to the defense of long-term care providers who find themselves the target of unsubstantiated claims of elderly abuse or neglect. In addition to long term care cases, our attorneys routinely defend healthcare providers from accusations of malpractice and professional liability. Often times, allegations of malpractice are accompanied by disciplinary proceedings before the various licensing boards, which can be serious, career-ending legal dilemmas. Our attorneys are here to assist in those disciplinary matters, as well. Beyond healthcare, our attorneys also offer construction professionals experienced representation in the vast field of construction litigation, including design defects, construction errors and construction-related or other catastrophic personal injury or property damage claims.
