A Team Of Lawyers Continuing A Legacy Of Service To The Injured In Maryland
Nothing about Peter Angelos Law says average, from the way we personally dedicate our support and passion to the injured victims and families we represent to the successful results that we have been able to deliver throughout the years. The firm was founded in 1961 by Peter Angelos, a man who spent his career fighting to improve the lives of everyday people in Baltimore and throughout Maryland. He earned a reputation for successfully taking on powerful and well-funded corporations that had harmed employees and consumers – work that he would continue for more than six decades. You can read more about the life and achievements of Mr. Angelos on our firm founder dedication page.
Sadly, Peter Angelos passed away in March 2024 at the age of 94. Maryland lost a giant, but the important legacy Mr. Angelos created continues through the law firm that still bears his name. Today, our dedicated team of 19 attorneys utilizes more than 500 years of combined legal experience on behalf of those injured by the negligence of other people, businesses and organizations.

No Fight Is Too Big, And No Opponent Is Too Powerful
Anyone who has been unjustly harmed deserves a legal champion to help them seek accountability and compensation. There are plenty of law firms that assist the victims of more routine personal injuries. But fewer firms have the skills, resources and drive to take on major corporations, institutions and even government agencies. Our firm does, and our lawyers continue to follow the example set by Peter Angelos. He successfully took on Big Tobacco and also helped thousands of Maryland workers sue their employers for mesothelioma and other diseases caused by workplace exposure to asbestos.
Today, our team of dedicated attorneys represents individual plaintiffs and groups of plaintiffs in high-stakes litigation alleging:
Medical malpractice: We hold medical professionals and hospitals accountable for delivering substandard care that harms or kills patients. Medical malpractice litigation requires in-depth knowledge, research and coordination with professionals who can serve as expert witnesses.
Mesothelioma and asbestos exposure: Injuries and diseases caused by asbestos exposure are insidious, sometimes taking years to manifest, but causing extensive damage and disability. We continue the firm’s legacy of holding accountable those whose negligence has resulted in mesothelioma and other asbestos-exposure conditions.
Dangerous and defective products: Peter Angelos fought against tobacco companies. We now continue the fight against purveyors or harmful and addictive vaping products. Our firm is passionate about seeking justice on behalf of those who have been injured or killed by dangerous pharmaceutical drugs, defective medical devices, poorly manufactured consumer goods and more.
Mass torts: Our firm is a recognized leader in asbestos and mesothelioma litigation. Due to the long lag between exposure and symptoms, it can be very difficult to prove liability and, once proven, seek restitution from businesses and organizations that may no longer exist. Our attorneys are up to the challenge and have achieved impressive results in mesothelioma claims.
Environmental and health disasters: There is a long history of private companies and even the U.S. government contaminating soil, water, air and residential areas with toxic chemicals and carcinogens. Whether you were harmed by contaminated groundwater and hazardous waste or were injured in an explosion or fire caused by leaking gas lines, our firm is ready to help you fight back.
Clergy sexual abuse: Even the most outwardly moral organizations can be guilty of tolerating atrocities. Our firm works with victims of clergy sexual abuse to help them recover compensation and to seek accountability from their abusers as well as the larger institutions that protected those abusers.
The list above is far from complete. We urge you to peruse our full list of practice areas on this site to learn how Peter Angelos Law may be able to assist you.
