    1/1

    Todd Harvey strives to be a dedicated, courageous advocate and

    representative for his clients. Born in Warm Springs, Ga., on October

    7, 1968, and raised in rural Upson County, he came to Alabama after

    acceptance to Samford University as a member of Samfords nationally

    ranked and recognized debate team. He graduated from Samford in

    1990 with a double major in International Relations and International

    Business. Todd received his Juris Doctor degree in 1994 from TheCumberland School of Law at Samford University and has been

    licensed in Alabama since 1994 and his native state of Georgia since

    1995.

    Todd began his law practice in Alabama with a labor and employment firm that ultimately expanded to include

    active practices representing clients all over the U.S. in diverse areas such as health care law, antitrust law, wage

    and hour law, serious personal injury, nursing home abuse and neglect, pharmaceutical products and medical

    device litigation and consumer protection and consumer class action litigation. This diverse range of practice gave

    Todd the experience and background needed to represent clients in numerous legal fields and to become an

    effective advocate and litigator. More importantly, this experience taught lessons about the importance of

    providing representation to and seeking justice for underrepresented and underprivileged individuals, workers,

    consumers and small businesses who need strong representation and need their voices heard.

    In 2007, Todd and his long time friend Peter Burke formed Burke Harvey, LLC, a firm committed to providing

    sound legal advice and strong representation to its clients. Since starting Burke Harvey, Todd has engaged in a

    national practice representing clients in a wide range of litigation including nursing home abuse and neglect,

    medical malpractice, pharmaceutical products and medical device cases, small business litigation and disputes and

    consumer protection and consumer class cases. Todd has been active in numerous national multi-district litigation

    proceedings, including In re Pilgrims Pride Fair Labor Standards Act Litigation in Arkansas, In re Yasmin/Yaz

    (Drospirenone) Marketing and Sales Practices and Products Liability Litigation in Illinois, In re Gadolinium

    Contrast Dyes Products Liability Litigation in Ohio, In re Pradaxa Products Liability Litigation in Illinois and In

    Re C.R. Bard, Inc. Pelvic Repair System Products Liability Litigation in West Virginia, to name just a few.

    Todd is an active member of the state bars of Alabama and Georgia and the Birmingham Bar Association. He is

    an active member of several trial lawyer associations, including the American Association for Justice, The National

    Trial Lawyers Association, the Alabama Association for Justice and the Georgia Association for Justice. He has

    received recognition for his work as an advocate and representative seeking justice on behalf of his clients by being

    selected as a Super Lawyer by his peers as having outstanding litigation skills as well as having been selected one of

    the National Trial Lawyers Associations Top 100 Litigators.

    Todd is married to Ann Marie Harris Harvey and they stay busy with their two daughters, Susannah and Sarah

    Page. They attend Vestavia Hills Baptist Church. When not practicing law or spending time with his family, Todd

    enjoys running, watching baseball and reading, researching and writing about history, something he has been

    passionate for since he was a child.
