introduction
Jim limits his practice to the representation of injured persons only and does NOT do any insurance defense work.
Jim was selected by his fellow lawyers as a “Best Lawyer in America”. This is an especially prestigious selection because Jim is the first (and only!) lawyer in this area EVER selected as a Best Lawyer in America.
Jim was selected for membership in the prestigious Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum. Forum membership is limited to trial lawyers who have demonstrated exceptional skill, experience and excellence in advocacy by achieving a trial verdict, award or settlement of Two Million Dollars or more. Jim was selected for Million Dollar Advocates Forum Membermembership following his successful handling of a medical malpractice case for a little girl who suffered permanent brain damage due to a delay in delivery. The case settled for the full insurance limits of $2,000,000.00. In addition to this case, Jim has handled several other Million-Plus cases including a recent settlement for $2,400,000. See more of Jim’s results here.
Super LawyersJim has also been selected as a New York “Super Lawyer” in the area of personal injury plaintiff attorneys. Lawyers are selected after a rigorous research process based on 12 indicators of peer recognition and professional achievement. Jim and his fellow ZiffLaw lawyer, Adam Gee, are the only active plaintiff’s attornesy in the Twin Tiers designated as NY SuperLawyesr.
WETM-TV selected Jim as their local legal expert. Jim is featured on the Noon News on Wednesdays where he responds to listeners’ legal questions. If you have a legal question, feel free to E-mail it to Jim on our Quick Contact form and he will be happy to address your question either via E-mail or on WETM.
Jim is very proud of the fact that he was selected as a member of the Faculty of Solo Practice University (SPU). SPU is a ground-breaking, international virtual university dedicated to teaching lawyers everything that law schools do not– how to handle a REAL case from beginning to end.
Faculty @ SPUGiven his broad experience as an injury attorney for more than 20 years, Jim was selected to teach: Injury Law 101– The Nuts and Bolts of Handling an Injury Case. Why is this a big deal? Because the SPU Faculty Members have been selected from among the very best lawyers in the country and a faculty member must be formally invited to join the SPU faculty. Congratulations to Jim on this great appointment.
Jim has lectured frequently on several law-related topics and has been published in the New York State Bar Journal, which is the largest and most prestigious legal publication in New York State. In 2008, Jim was selected to author a chapter in the New York State Bar Association treatise: Plaintiff’s Personal Injury Actions in New York.
Jim understands that our laws are very complicated and that it is virtually impossible for folks to understand the laws that are important to them. That’s why he strongly believes in freely sharing legal information on topics that directly impact people’s lives.
To that end, Jim has published TWO FREE BOOKS that he gives away free to residents of New York and Pennsylvania.
