Perry Calder Law

At Perry Calder Law, founded over 75 years ago in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, we take pride in offering zealous and thorough representation to individuals and their families throughout Western Pennsylvania. Our firm covers a wide range of personal injury and medical malpractice matters, from surgical accidents and birth injuries to motor vehicle and construction site accidents and nursing home abuse cases. Our core approach is founded on respect, trust and dignity, and our commitment to restoring our clients' quality of life following a serious injury at the hands of another is reflected at every step in our legal process. From the very start, we employ our intensive screening process to ensure that we pursue the most beneficial course of action for each client, whether that's through trial or settlement.

With a seasoned team of seven trial lawyers and a full medical research team on staff, we possess the resources necessary to litigate against formidable opponents. Our record demonstrates the success of our approach, as we have secured some of the largest verdicts and settlements in the state of Pennsylvania, including a landmark $32 million verdict. In addition to directly litigating cases, we have been honored to serve as consulting counsel in significant trials nationwide.

Our effective case approach and commitment to comprehensive representation is further echoed by our long list of accolades. We take pride in our first-tier rankings in the U.S. News & World Report/Best Lawyers in America's* "Best Law Firms" publication in the categories of plaintiffs' personal injury litigation and medical malpractice litigation, and three of our lawyers have been named in multiple editions of Best Lawyers* publications for their excellence in personal injury and medical malpractice law. Additional accolades earned by our committed trial lawyers include AV Preeminent** peer-reviewed ratings through Martindale-Hubbell.
