Brandon M. Howell, Partner

Brandon graduated from Transylvania University in 2004 and the University of Louisville School of Law in 2007. He began his career at one of Kentucky's preeminent plaintiffs' personal injury firms before transitioning to the defense of hospitals, nursing homes, physicians, and allied health professionals. He joined Thompson Miller & Simpson PLC in 2013.

Over his nearly twenty years in practice, Brandon has served his clients at trial, on appeal, in mediation, and in day-to-day litigation. He has obtained numerous summary judgments and dismissals, and been instrumental in negotiating resolution of claims. His experience includes management of catastrophic injury cases and mass litigation across multiple jurisdictions. He has lectured on legal education, medical malpractice defense, oral argument skills, and clinical documentation issues.
