Michael R O'Malley

I have been a trial lawyer for more than 30 years. My experience includes the representation of both plaintiffs and defendants in personal injury matters.

In addition to motor vehicle cases involving serious injury, I have substantial experience handling cases involving construction site accidents, dangerous premises, products liability, property damage, accidents involving children, wrongful death, brain injury, burn injuries, animal attacks, alcohol-related accidents, underinsured/uninsured motorist claims, insurance coverage, and Chapters 93A/176D.

I began my career with one of the leading insurance defense firms in Southeastern Massachusetts. I then went on to join the legal department of Liberty Mutual Insurance Company, one of the largest insurance companies in the country, rising to the position of Senior Trial Counsel.

While at Liberty Mutual, I was chosen to be designated counsel for some of the largest companies in the United States, including well known package delivery, retail, fast food, construction, elevator, and manufacturing companies. I regularly defended million dollars lawsuits, and tried hundreds of jury trials, bench trials, and arbitrations. I also annually instructed other senior Liberty Mutual lawyers from throughout the country at a nationally recognized, week-long, advanced trial advocacy program.

In 2007, after 23 year of representing defendants in lawsuits, my practice changed quite a bit. While I continue to represent defendants in civil lawsuits, I now concentrates my practice in the representation of injured persons, as well as acting as a mediator and arbitrator.
