 Her
expertise in highly technical N.Y.
Labor Laws has made Linda the counsel
of choice for plaintiffs and defendants,
in cases involving workers falling
from buildings, scaffolds and ladders,
sustaining grave and catastrophic
injury and death during construction
accidents. As defense counsel,
Linda has had her clients dismissed
from actions where others were
forced to pay millions of dollars.
When representing the injured party,
Linda has used her knowledge to
maximize her client's recovery. |

 Linda
successfully litigated against
therapists and psychiatrists that
engaged their patients in sexual
relationships and against employers
that sexually harassed employees
together with the companies that
permitted the misconduct and/or
retaliated against the employee.
The cases ended favorably for the
client due to an understanding
of the victim and knowledge of
this highly complex area of the
law. |

 Linda's
first trials were automobile accidents
and she has tried cases involving
cars, trucks, taxis, drivers, passengers,
pedestrians, police cars, ambulances,
buses and garbage trucks. Thorough
investigation of the accident scene
and research into the injury and
medicine is Linda's personal
approach to winning in each case. |

 Most
attorneys represent only doctors
or patients. Linda has done
both, giving her far greater
insight into the kinds of strategy
that are likely to come from
opposing counsel. Linda's
medical knowledge and ability
to cross examine convey the
facts to the jurors in a common
sense way that they can understand.
She carefully screens the records
of injured patients to decide
whose lawsuits she is willing
to accept. As a result, her
clients have received substantial
recoveries. |

 Linda
has successfully handled trip
and fall, slip and fall, and
sidewalk accident cases, for
plaintiffs and defendants.
She has tried cases where guests
were injured by spilled hot
food or bouncers and security
personnel, assaults at cash
machines, in hotel rooms, and
in apartment buildings. She
has handled cases involving
defective plumbing and flooding,
entry doors, windows, air conditioners,
elevators, ceiling collapses,
play areas and construction. |
| |
 Linda
has handled products liability
cases involving gas explosions,
electricity malfunctions, collapsing
chairs, lawnmowers, punch presses,
drills, motorized saws, sanitation
truck hoppers, garbage compactors
and flammable fabrics. These
cases involved severe burns,
loss of hands, fingers, toes,
facial injuries and life long
coma. Her knowledge of the
particular ANSI standards and
OSHA regulations and competence
have led to her being asked
to lecture to attorneys on
this subject. |
