Currently serving as partner at Brown & Barron, LLC, in Baltimore, Maryland, E.J. Hammann stays dedicated to assisting individuals facing serious adverse effects due to medical negligence or nursing home abuse. With over two decades of experience working exclusively on medical malpractice, she has an extensive background in handling birth injuries and catastrophic injuries. An empathetic and passionate advocate, she extends her services to people across Maryland and Washington, D.C.

Concentrating on high-stakes medical malpractice, Ms. Hammann brings comprehensive knowledge in cardiac, birth injury, emergency room and plastic surgery negligence cases, alongside complex surgical complications across specialties such as orthopedics and nephrology. A formidable presence in the courtroom, she is equally adept at alternative dispute resolution. Having successfully negotiated well over 100 cases, she consistently secures suitable outcomes for her clients through both strategic settlement negotiations and fierce trial advocacy.

Receiving her Juris Doctor from The George Washington University Law School, Ms. Hammann gained admission to practice law in Maryland in 2004 and Washington, D.C., in 2006. Working as an insurance defender before transitioning to representing plaintiffs, she acquired deep insight into the defense techniques used by insurance carriers. Today, she leverages this insider knowledge to anticipate the defense's strategy, dismantle their tactics and aggressively advocate for injured victims. 

Understanding exactly how insurance companies evaluate, minimize and fight claims allows Ms. Hammann to build bulletproof cases, level the playing field and secure the compensation her clients deserve. Her continuous efforts earned her recognition on the National Trial Lawyers Top 100. Her “Excellent” rating on Avvo stands as a testament to her commitment to quality representation.
