About Edward
Edward J. Tuite joined MDWC&G in 2000. He concentrates his practice in special investigation unit/fraud investigation and defense, auto and construction law, premises liability, and commercial trucking litigation. Over the course of his career, Ed has handled thousands of auto liability cases, hundreds of construction cases, and several hundred fraud cases involving auto and premises liability. He has represented numerous trucking companies and commercial carriers, as well as insurance carriers in project defense work regarding fraudulent and questionable billing practices, claims for personal injury protection, and medical benefit matters.
Ed's recent successful representations have included:
Ed has argued before the Superior Court of Pennsylvania and the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania and has set the legal precedent in Pennsylvania that an employer cannot be sued in dual capacity circumstances, such as simultaneous product liability and employer liability. His courtroom experience includes approximately 175 trials or binding arbitrations and 75 jury trials, nearly half of which resulted in defense verdicts, and an equal number in which verdicts or settlements were obtained significantly below the settlement demand.
Ed is a 1978 graduate of St. Joseph's University and Villanova University School of Law, where he received his Juris Doctorate in 1981. After law school, he entered private practice at Goushian, Mooradian & Goldsmith, where he handled a diverse range of civil litigation, from automobile liability to complex product liability matters.
For 14 years, Ed was the managing attorney of AIG Insurance Company's staff counsel for Philadelphia and surrounding counties, where he oversaw a legal staff of 45 and his offices handled general defense litigation, including automobile liability, products liability, professional liability, and dram shop litigation.
Ed has lectured for various insurance claims departments on topics such as automobile litigation, construction litigation, SIU, and professional liability. He serves as a judge pro tempore for the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas, as well as an arbitrator for Montgomery County, Philadelphia County, and the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania.
Outside of his practice, Ed is active in multiple coaching positions in local basketball and soccer organizations.
