This edition of POWER 30 honors personal injury lawyers who have made significant contributions to the Minnesota legal community, demonstrating exceptional leadership, influence, and respect within the legal profession.
Oliver Edward Nelson III has made a profound impact in the areas of personal injury, medical malpractice, and civil rights, particularly in cases involving police misconduct, wrongful deaths in jails and prisons, and unconstitutional government seizures. His dedication to seeking justice for victims of civil rights violations and medical negligence has resulted in millions of dollars in compensation for his clients.
Nelson’s work is particularly significant in highlighting the disparities in medical care that disproportionately affect minority communities. His commitment to advocating for those wronged by the system, particularly in cases where unconscious bias plays a role, has earned him a reputation as a formidable and compassionate advocate.
“Many penal institutions lack adequate on-site medical care, and inmates’ medical complaints are often dismissed. Unfortunately, medical professionals outside of these institutions also frequently fail to diagnose illnesses that could have been prevented or treated,” said Nelson. “This issue disproportionately affects minority communities, particularly young Black women, who often receive substandard care, leading to tragic outcomes such as stillbirths.”
Magna Law Firm is honored to see Oliver Edward Nelson III recognized among Minnesota’s top personal injury attorneys. His inclusion in the POWER 30 list is a testament to his unwavering dedication to his clients and his significant contributions to the legal community.
