Our firm has settled and tried important cases through verdict against doctors and hospitals.  Our medical malpractice cases have included life-threatening and life-altering matters, where physicians and hospital staff failed to properly diagnose symptoms of a stroke leading to death; where doctors failed to staunch bleeding from a ruptured artery; where improperly-injected epidurals during pregnancy were placed at the wrong level, causing numerous spinal injuries and temporary paralysis; where the early release of a pregnant woman with severe preeclampsia caused the loss of her baby and the inability to bear future children; and where a tumor was misdiagnosed as an ear infection, leading to the tumor’s growth.  We also have settled, gone to trial or are still working intensely on cases involving improper liposuction procedures, failed plastic surgery and the use of machines that burned a patient’s skin after being advertised as a method to remove acne.  We share the outrage over physicians and hospitals that should be working to attain positive results for patients who cause harm to them instead!

We have attained large settlements from employers who have harassed or discriminated against their employees.  This includes sexual harassment claims against the City of New York and professional business entities, after having notice of an employee’s previous harassment of co-workers, as well as several age discrimination claims for hard-working people who were no longer evaluated as being worthy of continuing their employment.

We have a large array of civil rights cases ranging from police abuse cases, where our clients were assaulted during arrest and lockup, and cases brought against the Department of Education, and other employers, who continue to give preferred status to certain races and cultures over others.  We also have taken on local elected officials who, in collusion with officials of the DOE, have attempted to bar the schoolhouse door to people they consider as “outsiders.”

We have represented candidates and committees fighting for a spot on the ballot from the Supreme Court level to the Court of Appeals.  We also have conducted full-blown trials, with positive results, against some of the most famous election attorneys in the city.  We have no qualms about taking on large political “organizations” on behalf of our election law clients.

Our attorneys have successfully attained injunctions and temporary restraining orders to prevent local communities from being abused by a final decision from an administrative agency. This includes the Department of Environmental Protection of the City of New York when they attempted to use dynamite to blast reservoir retaining walls in the midst of a densely populated community, and where religious organizations have failed to adhere their by-laws or charters by failing to hold elections, or otherwise depriving their members of specified rights.  We have often worked closely with members of the Sikh community. 

Our firm handles sexual harassment, age discrimination and various other employment cases, including Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) cases for both Plaintiffs and Defendants. We have been retained by individuals and small business owners to handle such claims.
