Our “Get to Know BMD” series introduces you to the professionals who drive our firm’s success. We delve into the backstories of our team members, exploring their career paths, practice areas, and the passions that inspire their work. Get to Know BMD in this spotlight with Attorney Kate Crawford. 

What is your practice area and why did you choose it?
My practice area is healthcare law. My personal experiences with our healthcare system and my background in the nonprofit sector sparked my interest in this area of law. Before pursuing a law degree, I was on the Medical Eligibility team at Make-A-Wish Ohio, Kentucky & Indiana. My role was extremely fulfilling and led me to discover my interest in healthcare compliance.

What do you enjoy most about practicing law?
While I am brand new to the practice of law, I have really enjoyed the variety of projects I have been able to work on so far. I am eager to continue learning and developing my practice. I have incredible mentors at BMD and look forward to what is in store for 2025!

What was your first job, and what did it teach you that you still use in your legal career today?
My first job was a summer internship at an electric company. I helped the company prepare for the renewal process of its franchises agreements which involved reviewing a lot of documents. This taught me the importance of attention to detail!  

What is one goal you’ve set for yourself this year, professionally or personally?
This year I really want to learn how to cook!

Ohio’s Statute of Repose: Is it Really a Bar to All Construction Claims?

January 22, 2018In response to the increase in common-law claims against architects and contractors brought by third parties who lacked “privity of contract”, many states enacted a construction statute of repose. A statute of repose is intended to forever bar claims for certain injuries or damages after a set period of time following substantial completion. Subject to certain exceptions, the primary distinction between a statute of repose and statute of limitations is that a statute of repose begins to run regardless of whether one is aware of a defect.
