PHILADELPHIA — Anapol Weiss, a prominent personal injury and mass tort litigation firm, has announced the acquisition of Walsh Law, bolstering its nationwide capabilities. With 45 years of experience in the legal field, Anapol Weiss now extends its reach with offices across major U.S. cities, including Philadelphia, Scottsdale, Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Dallas, and Minneapolis.
Alexandra Walsh, the founder of Walsh Law and a renowned trial attorney, joins Anapol Weiss along with her team of skilled lawyers. Her team is actively involved in several high-profile mass tort litigations, notably those concerning social media addiction and injuries as well as sexual assaults by Uber drivers.
Thomas Anapol, managing shareholder at Anapol Weiss, expressed enthusiasm about the integration of Walsh’s team. “Alex’s proven leadership in pivotal mass tort actions aligns perfectly with our firm’s dedication and expanding expertise in handling significant legal challenges,” stated Anapol.
Walsh, a Stanford Law alumni with commendable clerkships under U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and former U.S. Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer, brings a stellar track record to Anapol Weiss. Her career highlights include notable recognition from the American College of Trial Lawyers and the New York Law Journal’s Verdict Hall of Fame for a billion-dollar jury award in a federal securities fraud lawsuit.
“I am excited to contribute to and expand the robust litigation framework Anapol Weiss has established,” Walsh said. “Joining this team not only enhances our combined legal prowess but also fortifies our commitment to justice for those we represent.”
This addition represents Anapol Weiss’s third major expansion in 2024, following the integration of attorneys Richard Golomb and Kristen Gibbons Feden earlier in the year. Feden, recognized for her successful prosecution of Bill Cosby in 2018, has secured multiple high-value verdicts recently. Additionally, Kila Baldwin, another significant figure at Anapol Weiss, has achieved nearly $200 million in jury awards for her clients since last year.
Anapol Weiss has made a name for itself not only through successful litigation but also as a majority-female-owned firm, a noteworthy achievement in the predominantly male-dominated legal industry. The firm excels in securing compensation for individuals affected by defective drugs and medical devices, medical malpractice, vehicular accidents, and other complex personal injury matters.
The firm’s commitment to its clients and its aggressive pursuit of justice have helped it recover hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of injured parties across the nation. Anapol Weiss’s robust portfolio and committed team of lawyers underscore its status as a formidable presence in the U.S. legal landscape.
As Anapol Weiss continues to expand its influence and expertise with strategic acquisitions like that of Walsh Law, it sets a formidable precedent in the realm of personal injury and mass tort litigation, advocating relentlessly for consumer safety and accountability.
