The Murdaugh Family Business(Peters Murdaugh Parker Eltzroth & Detrick(PMPED))
Alex Murdaugh is a member of the famous Murdaugh family which had a legal litigation law firm in Hampton, South Carolina. The Litigation law firm owned by the Murdaugh family was founded by Randolph Murdaugh Sr. in 1910. The law firm was called Peters Murdaugh Parker Eltzroth & Detrick(PMPED). The entire family was engaged in the family business and run all operations relating to it. Peters Murdaugh Parker Eltzroth & Detrick (PMPED), now The Parker Law Group concentrate in cases involving personal injuries. A state law that made it simpler for plaintiffs to shop for the most favorable forum helped the firm establish its success in the early 2000s. Regardless of where an accident occurred, the statute allowed South Carolina residents to “bring a suit in any county where an out-of-state company had property and conducted business.” Trial judges in Hampton County typically did not transfer cases, and plaintiffs’ lawyers were known for misusing the subpoena power.
The 14th Circuit District was rated the third worst “judicial hellhole for defendants” by the American Tort Reform Association as a result of this legal environment. The county was regarded as a “place of pilgrimage” for people with personal injury lawsuits against railways as a result of PMPED’s success in suing CSX Transportation. Locals began to refer to PMPED’s headquarters as “the mansion that CSX built.” Hampton County lost potential employers since conducting business there became illegal as a result of the firm’s activity. The corporate venue statute of South Carolina was revised in 2005 by both the state high court and the General Assembly, making it harder for plaintiffs to readily forum-shop in Hampton County. In 2022, PMPED adopted the name The Parker Law Group.
