Barasch & McGarry

The law firm of Barasch McGarry Salzman & Penson is one of New York's most prominent firms concentrating in the areas of personal injury, wrongful death, trials and appeals and firefighters' rights. Our firm enjoys an outstanding reputation with people of every background, ethnic group, and profession in New York. We represent seriously injured victims from all types of accidents. We have recovered hundreds of millions of dollars on behalf of our clients at trials and in settlements. With nearly 100 years of collective legal experience, we have fought battles and won important landmark decisions in some of our nation's highest courts. We do not select our clients on the basis of their ability to pay. Rather, we represent our clients on a contingency fee basis which is set by state law. Many of our clients are referred to us by other lawyers. We are especially proud of the awards that we have obtained on behalf of thousands of NYC firefighters who sustained injuries in the line of duty. We have successfully argued cases that have resulted in improved laws which strengthen the rights of firefighters. Litigation can be a daunting and intimidating process. We take pride not just in maximizing our client's compensation, but in our commitment to making the "journey to justice" as understandable and pleasant as possible.
