Weitz & Luxenberg has continued to build on this tradition of success, growing as a firm both in size and resources. W&L today has over 100 attorneys working in world-class facilities located in New York, Los Angeles, Detroit, and Cherry Hill, N.J., outside of Philadelphia.
"My job as a plaintiff’s lawyer is to seek justice on behalf of people injured by defective products or fraudulent conduct, and to help them regain at least some of what they’ve lost. Success in that regard requires approaching each case with a meticulously planned strategy, intimate knowledge of the law, and tireless dedication to the job."
Focus: Defective Drugs and Devices, Environmental Pollution
"While I love the intellectual challenge of doing complicated medical device and pharmaceutical drug litigations, what motivates me and keeps me going is the opportunity to help individuals and families. I consider myself very privileged to be in the position I am to be of service to those in need."
"I was taught from a young age to stand up for those who cannot for themselves, to call out greed and wrongdoing, and to always seek justice. I’m proud of how I was raised — that’s why I’m passionate about matters of social justice and know there’s no fight that’s too big. "
Focus: Defective Drugs and Devices, Trafficking & Abuse
"Fighting for clients injured by dangerous and defective products is important advocacy of consumer rights to redress the egregious behavior of companies that do not adequately warn, and in conscious disregard, of the risks associated with the products they sell to the public."
Focus: Defective Drugs and Devices, Trafficking & Abuse
"Weitz & Luxenberg champions working people — people who would otherwise be without a voice to stand up for their legal rights. I consider it a great honor to be able to help them obtain the justice they seek."
"Our clients have suffered life-altering injuries. And that’s what brings them to us for help. I am delighted and honored to be part of this caring team of supremely talented attorneys that offers the help these injured people urgently need."
"It’s important for clients to have continuous contact with their attorney. That’s why, when I take on a case, I personally attend to every detail: the pleadings, discovery, depositions and trial. After trying every type of case imaginable over the past 40-plus years, it’s rare that I’m faced with an issue that I haven’t already litigated."
Focus: Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice
"Perry [Weitz] has never done anything but encourage us to spend whatever it takes to do the very best job, because he was a trial lawyer. If anything, he’ll say, ‘Why didn’t you do another focus group? Why didn’t you spend more money to prepare? Why not do more?’ It’s not just that they don’t say ‘no.’ They actually encourage you to do everything that you can to win."
Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice, Environmental Pollution
"We have a tireless commitment to fight against the harm caused by exposure to asbestos. It’s a good fight, a worthy fight. The men and women who built this country deserve to be compensated by the companies who put them in their unfortunate situation, and that’s why we do what we do here."
Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice
"What’s satisfying about the work we do, despite the gravity of the cases, despite the heartbreak of our clients’ plight, is that we are able to get some measure of justice for these families."
"When Perry Weitz and I founded this firm in 1986, we took the position that every client’s case would be treated as if it were the most important because we believe every client deserves his or her lawyer’s diligent attention, compassion, and excellence. We had but one goal: providing exemplary, custom-tailored legal service. Nothing has changed since the beginning, except that we’re now the largest mass-tort and personal injury litigation law firm in New York City and a powerhouse of legal innovation on the national scene as a result of holding fast to our founding principles.
We find ourselves fortunate to have the opportunity of practicing law at its highest level for America’s most vulnerable citizens as well as furthering ambitious philanthropic and social initiatives."

"Many of our clients’ lives will never be the same. They had a hip, knee, shoulder, or elbow prosthesis surgically implanted, hoping to get better, and instead suffered toxicity from cobalt and chromium debris requiring the premature removal of the implant. For some clients, the device spontaneously fractured because of the metallic corrosion. That’s why I am honored to be part of a team that works passionately on their behalf — to get them the compensation they deserve and to make the medical product companies think twice before gambling again with the well-being of decent people."
"It is deeply satisfying to see a client win his or her case. It is satisfying because I know the victory was deserved. I delight in seeing justice done."
"We’re not medical miracle workers, so we can’t restore anyone’s life or health. However, as attorneys, what we can do is see to it that the injured receive fair and reasonable compensation for what they’ve been made to endure."
"I’ve been an attorney for a very long time, and I’ve yet to encounter a firm with the same level of commitment and resolve to winning and securing justice for its clients as Weitz & Luxenberg."
Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice
"In a society where large corporations feel like they can take advantage of everyday people without consequence, it is gratifying to work at Weitz & Luxenberg where we constantly fight for justice on behalf of the little guy."
"Most individuals who contact us have never before filed a lawsuit. Their primary concern is with their health or that of a loved one. They don’t know what their legal rights are; they’re not sure if they even have any. We assist them in a number of ways, including informing them of what their legal options are and the best course for moving forward."
"With regards to the prescription opioid crisis, I am proud to help Weitz & Luxenberg hold corporations accountable for their culpable conduct, not just in manufacturing the products but also in manufacturing a crisis through their profligate distribution of these drugs."
Focus: Defective Drugs and Devices, Environmental Pollution, Consumer Protection
"One of the great things about working for Weitz & Luxenberg is that you know you’re part of something bigger than just yourself. We’re all here to help people harmed in some way — by a company or a person who was irresponsible or, in the case of asbestos manufacturers, downright contemptible. When one of us achieves a “win” for a client, we all feel the satisfaction of having done something important, something that really matters to the people we’re trying to help."
Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice
"When I joined forces with Arthur Luxenberg many years ago, we created a firm dedicated to protecting workers’ rights and the legal rights of the disadvantaged while, at the same time, returning something back to the people of New York. Our employees take great pride in knowing that the Weitz & Luxenberg law firm is so often associated with charitable causes and activities. Our efforts are motivated by the firm’s commitment to give something back to the communities in which we live and work."

"I find it extremely rewarding to be in a position to help somebody whose life has been dramatically damaged by a company’s wrongful conduct and hopefully to get the opportunity to see their lives change for the better."
"I have always loved doing plaintiffs’ work. For more than 35 years, I have dedicated myself to giving a voice to the underdog and fighting on behalf of the common man. Protecting everyday people and their rights is what drives me. It is a privilege to be part of Weitz & Luxenberg’s efforts to bring about justice and a fair resolution for our clients, people whose voices might not otherwise be heard."
"Prescription drugs are often rushed to market before their side effects are fully known. In some cases, the side effects turn out to be deadly. In still other cases, the manufacturer and sellers know or at least suspect that these dangerous side effects exist, but are too intent on making profits to do the right things. That’s why Weitz & Luxenberg is here. It’s to hold these makers and marketers responsible, and to see to it that the innocent victims of these products are adequately compensated for the harm they suffered."
