Turnbull Brockmeyer Law Group is honored to serve the residents of Washington County, including Hagerstown, Boonsboro, Smithsburg, Williamsport, Clear Spring, Hancock, Funkstown, Keedysville, Sharpsburg, Maugansville, Cavetown, Rohrersville, and Big Pool.

Our firm provides a broad range of legal services across various practice areas, including personal injury, birth injury, medical malpractice, auto accidents, slip and fall, criminal defense, traffic violations, DUI, workers’ compensation, and wrongful death. We also handle complex cases involving product liability, premises liability, nursing home abuse, chemical exposure, and police misconduct. Our dedicated attorneys strive to secure justice and fair compensation for clients throughout Washington County, with an understanding of the local area and its unique needs.

Personal Injury

In personal injury cases, we represent clients who have been injured in incidents such as car accidents, motorcycle crashes, truck collisions, pedestrian accidents, boating accidents, train accidents, and bicycle accidents. Key routes like I-70, I-81, Route 40, and Route 11 frequently see significant traffic, leading to accidents that can cause serious injuries. We also represent clients involved in Uber and Lyft accidents, handling the complexities of insurance claims and liability issues specific to rideshare services. Additionally, we advocate for victims of
15-passenger van accidents, school bus accidents, taxi accidents, and ATV accidents, ensuring they receive compensation for medical costs, lost wages, and other related expenses.

Our attorneys are skilled in handling cases involving catastrophic injuries, such as brain injuries, spinal cord injuries, burns, and dog bites, which often require extensive medical care and rehabilitation. For families dealing with the loss of a loved one in auto accident deaths, we provide compassionate support in pursuing wrongful death claims, helping them recover relief for funeral costs, lost income, and emotional suffering.

 

Medical Malpractice

Our medical malpractice attorneys manage cases involving surgical errors, birth injuries, medication mistakes, hospital negligence, and misdiagnosis errors. Washington County residents often rely on healthcare providers like Meritus Medical Center in Hagerstown and Hagerstown Regional Medical Center. Surgical errors can result in severe complications, while birth injuries due to negligent care during labor and delivery can have lifelong impacts on families.

We also handle cases involving medication errors, such as incorrect dosages and dangerous drug interactions, which can result in serious harm. Hospital errors—including unsanitary conditions, lack of patient monitoring, and staffing issues—can jeopardize patient safety. Misdiagnosis cases, where a delayed or incorrect diagnosis worsens a patient’s condition, are another focus of our practice. We work diligently to hold healthcare providers accountable and ensure victims of medical malpractice receive the compensation they deserve.

Auto accident

In auto accident cases, we represent clients involved in car crashes, motorcycle collisions, truck accidents, bus accidents, and rideshare-related incidents with Uber and Lyft. Accidents involving large trucks on major routes like I-81 can lead to devastating injuries due to the size and weight of these vehicles.

Our attorneys handle complex claims involving multiple parties and insurance companies, working to secure compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. We also assist families pursuing wrongful death claims following fatal accidents, providing guidance and support throughout the legal process to seek justice for their loss.

Slip And Fall

Our premises liability attorneys handle cases involving slip and fall injuries, trip and fall accidents, and Airbnb injuries, holding property owners responsible for unsafe conditions like wet floors, uneven walkways, and broken handrails.

Washington County’s popular attractions, including Antietam National Battlefield, Greenbrier State Park, and Fort Frederick State Park, are common locations for recreational activities where accidents can happen. We represent clients injured in boating accidents, hiking accidents, and other outdoor incidents, working to ensure they receive compensation for their injuries and associated costs.

Criminal defense

Criminal defense, DUI, and traffic violations are key areas of our practice. Our criminal defense attorneys provide robust representation for clients facing charges from DUI and drug offenses to assault and other serious charges. We work to protect clients’ rights, whether dealing with minor traffic infractions or more serious criminal matters. For clients facing DUI charges, we offer experienced guidance to minimize penalties, preserve driving privileges, and reduce fines.

Our attorneys also handle traffic violation cases, such as speeding, reckless driving, and license suspension, working to prevent points on clients’ driving records and safeguard their rights.

Workers’ Compensation

In workers’ compensation cases, we advocate for individuals injured on the job. Washington County is home to major employers such as Volvo Group Trucks, JLG Industries, First Data, and Meritus Health, where employees face risks in manufacturing, healthcare, and industrial environments.

We handle cases involving construction accidents, falls from heights, scaffolding incidents, electrocution, and chemical exposure, ensuring clients receive benefits for medical care, wage replacement, and rehabilitation. We also represent clients exposed to toxic substances like benzene, securing the medical care and financial support they need to manage long-term health effects. Additionally, we assist families in pursuing compensation for workplace deaths, helping them recover funds for funeral expenses, lost income, and other associated losses.

Product Liability

Our product liability attorneys represent clients harmed by defective products, including consumer goods, medical devices, industrial machinery, and vehicles. We hold manufacturers accountable for injuries caused by design flaws, manufacturing errors, or insufficient warnings, working to secure compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, and other damages.

We also handle cases involving chemical exposure, particularly in industrial and manufacturing settings, where victims may suffer serious health issues due to toxic substances.

Abuse Cases Of Nursing

In nursing home abuse cases, we advocate for families whose loved ones have suffered from neglect, physical abuse, financial exploitation, or inadequate care in facilities like Julia Manor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center and Coffman Nursing Home. We work to hold these facilities accountable for failing to provide safe, compassionate care, ensuring residents’ rights are protected.

Additionally, we represent clients in cases involving police misconduct and sexual abuse, offering strong legal support to ensure that responsible parties are held accountable and that victims receive the justice they deserve.

Death Cases

Wrongful death cases require both sensitivity and experience, and our attorneys are dedicated to helping families pursue justice after losing a loved one due to negligence or misconduct. These cases may arise from auto accidents, medical malpractice, or workplace incidents, and we work to ensure that families receive compensation for funeral expenses, lost income, and emotional suffering.

We understand the profound impact of such a loss and are committed to supporting families through these challenging times.
