ANDREW M. WALSH is originally from Nashville, Tennessee, with sojourns in various cities, including Washington, DC and Atlanta, GA. He received his B.A. degree in Economics and History from Cornell University in 1983, and his JD and MBA degrees from the University of Tennessee, where he was editor in chief of the Tennessee Judicial Newsletter and moot court finalist. Mr. Walsh has served as a legal-economic analyst for the Tennessee Attorney General's Antitrust and Consumer Protection Division, and for a Washington, D.C. consulting firm, working on nationally recognized mergers, acquisitions and antitrust cases and issues.

Mr. Walsh was admitted to the Tennessee Bar in 1989 and the Georgia Bar in 1993. After completing a state appellate court judicial clerkship, Mr. Walsh worked as an associate for the New York/San Diego firm of Milberg, Weiss, Bershad, Specthrie & Lerach in Knoxville, Tennessee representing the FDIC on a nationally reknowned accountant malpractice lawsuit involving a "Big Four" accounting firm and a series of failed banks, culminating in a one year jury trial and a large, confidential settlement. Thereafter, Mr. Walsh joined the Atlanta firm of Powell, Goldstein, Frazer & Murphy, continuing his large complex accountant's malpractice, director and officer liability, failed bank and antitrust legal practice. Mr. Walsh joined Mr. Ladson after five years of solo practice in Atlanta, where he continued his complex business trial practice, adding high-tech and securities litigation to his repertoire. He is also an avid champion of and fully trained in "ADR" – Alternative Dispute Resolution – a newer form of settling disputes out of court via mediation, arbitration and similar procedures. Mr. Walsh is qualified to serve as an advocate or neutral in ADR proceedings, as the situation may require.
