Personal Injury Cases in Howard County, Maryland

     Hagerstown, the sixth largest city in Maryland, is the “capital” of Washington County.  It is the largest city in western Maryland.   The major hospital in Hagerstown is Washington County Hospital.

     Juries in Hagerstown have been traditionally viewed as conservative and car accident and medical malpractice lawyers have often not pled a jury trial, choosing instead to ask that the case be heard by a judge in Hagerstown.  Even more extreme, some plaintiffs have moved out of state to avoid jurisdiction in Hagerstown.  But times are changing and Hagerstown has become more cosmopolitan, which has improved jury awards (according to the anecdotal evidence, anyway).  A few years back, a Hagerstown jury awarded a $3 million verdict against State Farm in an uninsured motorist car accident case, and we are aware of at least one seven figure settlement in Hagerstown. 

    There are five circuit court judges in Hagerstown: John H. McDowell, W. Kennedy Boone, III, Donald E. Beachley, M. Kenneth Long, and Daniel P. Dwyer.
