Andrew T. Burnett | Attorney

Andrew’s legal practice is dedicated to advocating for victims of personal injuries, particularly those who have suffered as a result of medical malpractice or nursing home abuse.Andrew’s exceptional legal skills have been consistently recognized by Super Lawyers, receiving the prestigious distinction of ‘A Rising Star’ in Maryland yearly since 2014 through 2021 and most recently as a Super Lawyer from 2022 through present. He has also been acknowledged for his outstanding achievements and professionalism from a number of other legal associations, including being awarded with the prestigious Top 40 Under 40 designation by The National Trial Lawyers in 2017 to 2022. Additionally, the National Academy of Personal Injury Attorneys voted to include him among the Top 10 Personal Injury Attorneys Under 40 in Maryland.

Andrew’s admittance to the Multi-Million Dollar and Million Dollar Advocates Forum is another notable accomplishment demonstrating his successful efforts fighting for his clients, as Maryland’s legal environment is marked by tort reform restrictions available to victims for their noneconomic damages. As a certified life member, he has joined the ranks of the most successful trial lawyers in the United States, with less than 1% of U.S. lawyers attaining this prestigious recognition. His inclusion in this group is a quantifiable testament to his hard-fought efforts in obtaining multi-million dollar verdicts, awards, and settlements for his clients.

After several years of serving the people of Anne Arundel County, Andrew’s career path transitioned him over to private practice in an Annapolis law firm. There, his skills led him to defending doctors and hospitals in multimillion-dollar lawsuits with jury trials across Maryland, the District of Columbia, and Virginia, where he routinely found success through his efforts in defending medical malpractice cases.

Driven by the profound impact of witnessing the devastating consequences faced by patients and their families due to medical malpractice, Andrew recognized the need to advocate for the victims rather than big business. Having gained critical knowledge from his experience working with large insurance companies, he now leverages this understanding to empower his clients who have fallen victim to nursing home abuse and medical malpractice. Andrew’s commitment to justice and his empathy for the victims guide his mission to secure compensation for the injured and hold negligent parties accountable.
