Since its founding in 1945, the firm has established a SALSBURY, CLEMENTS, BEKMAN, MARDER & ADKINS, LLC tradition of excellence in handling medical malpractice; professional negligence; product liability; birth trauma; and automobile, transportation, maritime, and business matters. MEDICAL MALPRACTICE, PERSONAL INJURY, COMPLEX CIVIL LITIGATION S “OUR COMMITMENT TO HARD WORK AND PREPARATION, ALONG WITH OUR willingness to try cases, has allowed us to consistently achieve landmark recoveries for our clients,” notes managing partner Paul D. Bekman, who has been AV Preeminent® rated by Martindale-Hubbell®, along with Stuart M. Salsbury, Daniel M. Clements, Laurence A. Marder, E. Dale Adkins III, Wendy L. Shiff, and Michael P. Smith. NOW IN HIS FOURTH DECADE OF PRACTICE, BEKMAN IS ONE OF THE MOST RESPECTED trial attorneys in Maryland. He has achieved the highest personal injury verdicts in multiple Maryland counties and has been named as a Best Lawyers Lawyer of the Year in Baltimore for the past five consecutive years.

  • 2020 Annual Report Is Now Available
    ATLANTIC LEGAL FOUNDATION 2020 ANNUAL REPORT THE YEAR IN REVIEW TheAtlantic Legal Foundation (“ALF”) progresses into its 44th year in 2021 in pursuit of its mission to foster sound science in judicial and regulatory proceedings; promote parental school choice and the effective education of our next generation of Americans; assure enlightened corporate governance; and uphold the rule of law under our Constitution by advocating limited and efficient government, individual liberty and free enterprise. In pursuing its Mission as fully stated at page 47 following, Atlantic Legal is well established as the leading organization in America for fostering justice through sound science in judicial and regulatory proceedings. While diligent in pursuing all of its Mission objectives, ALF especially recognizes today’s crying need for promoting and assuring the historically sound education of our youth. This need has become compelling in light of failing schools with educational deficiencies attributable to coronavirus constraints and the controversy surrounding the 1619 Project’s indoctrination of our youth followed by the recent abolishment of the 1776 Commission formed to promote American Founding Values. The President’s The President’s Advisory 1776 Commission Report was released in January of 2021 and is posted on the Atlantic Legal Foundation’s website. These concerns are paramount for patriotic Americans. See the sections on Effective Education and Charter School Advocacy at pages 17 and 23 following. 2020 was a trying time for us all. Atlantic Legal was challenged in 2020 by the coronavirus constraints preventing its annual fundraising Awards Dinner for 2019 in the spring of 2020 and again this spring of 2021 for 2020, as well as by the year-end retirement of its long time Executive Vice President -- General Counsel, Martin S.

  • Roberts Papers, 1973-77
    John W. “Bill” Roberts Papers, 1973-77 Oral Diary, July 24-September 12, 1974 In 1991, Bill Roberts donated to the Gerald R. Ford Presidential Library 14 linear feet of papers covering his work as an assistant press secretary to Gerald R. Ford during both the vice presidency and presidency. The collection includes Roberts's personal observations and recollections, which he tape- recorded every few days during July, August, and September 1974. These recollections, on four audio cassettes, provide insight into the last days of the Ford vice presidency, the transition to the presidency, and the persons and personalities involved in the events. The diary begins and ends abruptly, and it is sporadic. It covers only this brief period in time and is not part of a more complete diary. The Ford Library created the transcript that appears on succeeding pages of this document. Roberts, 7/24/74-9/12/74 - 1 July 24, 1974 Wednesday I'm starting this recording on July 24th. On the morning of July 24th, the Supreme Court, 8-0, ordered the President to surrender the tapes. The Vice President heard about this shortly after the Court decision was made public and decided that he wouldn't say anything as far as the press was concerned until or unless the President made some sort of response. We had quite a problem in fending off the press inquiries which were coming in at a great rate. The complicating factor was that CBS that day had chosen and been given the chance to follow the Vice President wherever he went, photograph him, and do a day in the life of the Vice President.

    https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/10/26/trumps-labor-secretary-is-a-wrecking-ball-aimed-at-workers A Reporter at Large October 26, 2020 Issue Trump’s Labor Secretary Is a Wrecking Ball Aimed at Workers As Election Day looms, Eugene Scalia, a cunning lawyer committed to dismantling regulation, is weakening one employee protection after another. By Eyal Press October 19, 2020 Even if Joe Biden wins, Scalia’s deregulation blitz will likely take years to reverse. Illustration by Paul Sahre. Photographs: Yuri Gripas / Bloomberg / Getty (Scalia); Getty (Workers) On February 24, 2010, during a show at SeaWorld Orlando, a trainer named Dawn Brancheau was reclining on a platform in the middle of a stadium pool when Tilikum—the park’s largest killer whale—pulled her into the water and thrashed her around until she drowned. Her death was initially reported as an accident, but a subsequent investigation by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration revealed an “extensive history” of incidents exposing SeaWorld trainers to serious hazards. (It turned out that Tilikum, along with two other whales, had previously drowned a trainer at another park.) OSHA fined SeaWorld seventy‐five thousand dollars for three violations and ordered it to either install barriers or keep trainers Page 1 of 20 https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2020/10/26/trumps-labor-secretary-is-a-wrecking-ball-aimed-at-workers at safe distances during shows. SeaWorld contested OSHA’s actions, and, in 2013, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals heard the case. The lawyer representing SeaWorld argued that OSHA, a division of the Labor Department, had improperly threatened the premise of the marine park’s business, which, he claimed, required close contact between trainers and killer whales.
