J. Lamar Porter

For forty years, Lamar Porter has handled all aspects of personal injury litigation (motor vehicle, trucking, defective products, and catastrophic injury cases). For the last twenty-five years, Lamar has focused primarily on medical malpractice litigation, representing patients and their families in cases against medical providers who have caused serious injury or death. Mr. Porter heads the medical malpractice and litigation section of the law firm and has been closely involved in the firm’s drug and medical device cases. He has extensive experience in handling birth injury cases (obstetrical malpractice). Although only a handful of malpractice verdicts have ever been handed down against an Arkansas physician, Lamar won one of the few obstetrical malpractice verdicts ever awarded in the state and has negotiated hundreds of settlements in favor of his clients over his many years of practice. He was recognized by Soirée Magazine as the Best Environmental Law Attorney in 2014.
