Rooted in Labor.
Respected Nationwide.
Our history is grounded in the labor movement. We have long-standing relationships with unions and their members, fighting tirelessly for workers injured on the job or harmed by unsafe conditions, employer negligence, or toxic exposure. That same sense of purpose drives every case we take – whether it’s for a construction worker, a grieving family, or a survivor of abuse or injustice.
Proud Members
A Trial-Ready Mindset
We prepare every case as if it’s going to trial and insurance companies and defense teams know it. Our attorneys are experienced in the courtroom and unafraid to take on complex, high-profile cases. That readiness has earned our firm multimillion-dollar verdicts and settlements across a wide range of practice areas.
Compassion Meets Strategy
Clients come to us at their most vulnerable. We respond with honesty, empathy, and relentless legal support. We take the time to understand not just the legal facts, but the personal impact of every injury and every loss. From the first conversation to the final resolution, we are here to guide, advocate, and fight on your behalf.
