James Brian Duncan Jr.

Brian has been described by his peers as an “exceptionally talented top-tier lawyer,” who is “tenacious,” “hard-working,” and “conscientious.” Brian cares deeply for his clients, and he is devoted to helping them through some of the most difficult times imaginable — the loss of a loved one or coping with the new realities that accompany life-altering personal injuries.

Brian has handled a wide range of cases including business fraud, personal injuries, wrongful death, industrial accidents, defective products, trucking accidents, and other cases involving serious wrongdoing. Brian has, however, developed a particular expertise representing clients who suffered injury due to medical negligence from a doctor, hospital, or other healthcare provider. Brian has handled all types of medical cases involving injuries and deaths caused by negligent care in areas such as hospital administration, surgical errors, medication errors, anesthesia errors, missed or delayed diagnosis, pathology errors, radiology errors, lab errors, nursing errors, emergency room injuries, pharmacy errors, and defective medical products.

Most recently, Brian obtained a record setting $35 million dollar verdict in a medical negligence case against Springhill Medical Center for causing the death of a patient by administering him a massive overdose of IV pain medication and failing to appropriately monitor him. The verdict is the largest medical malpractice verdict in Mobile County, Alabama history.
