Insurance defense firm Tyson & Mendes has opened a new Philadelphia office with the help of newfound office managing partner Maureen Daley, formerly the chair of Rawle & Henderson’s premises liability department, aiming to fight what co-founder Robert Tyson calls an ongoing wave of “nuclear verdicts” in the Philadelphia Court of Common Pleas. 

Daley, who served at Rawle for over 20 years, is joined by partners Jocelyne Peregoy and Joseph Longo along with senior counsel Allan Goulding in Tyson & Mendes’ new office.
