Proven VerdictsAbout Nelson, Bryan, Boylen & Cross
Nelson, Bryan, Boylen & Cross is a Jasper, Alabama firm representing individuals and small businesses across North Alabama in personal injury, motor vehicle and commercial truck accidents, workers' compensation, product liability, medical malpractice, insurance disputes, and Social Security, VA, railroad and federal black lung disability claims. Its four attorneys have more than 85 years of combined experience and the firm works cases with a team approach rather than assigning each matter to a single lawyer. In March 2026 the firm served as co-counsel with Goldasich, Vick, & McCartney of Birmingham on a $70 million verdict against Tyson Farms and HydraService in Walker County, the largest verdict in the county's history, and the two firms had previously set the county record with a $10 million medical malpractice verdict in 2017.
