Silvia Fermanian

Associate Attorney

"My goal is to resolve a lien in the best interest of our client."

Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice
Robert J. Gordon

Of Counsel

"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
David M. Kaufman

Associate Attorney, Trusts and Estates

"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."

"Working at Weitz & Luxenberg and being united among the most talented and dedicated team of attorneys who share a common interest in doing good for others is a privilege. I am grateful to be able to handle personal injury and negligence cases at a firm where my top priority is achieving the best possible outcome for our clients."

Focus: Personal Injury and Malpractice
Arthur Luxenberg

Co-Founding Member

"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."

Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice, Environmental Pollution, Consumer Protection
Stuart Perry

Of Counsel

"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
Adam Raffo

Associate Attorney

"Obtaining justice from defendants in an asbestos injury case parallels to an extent what transpires in a criminal case. In both you have an accused wrongdoer, a victim, a harm — and an opportunity to make things right."

Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Personal Injury and Malpractice
Leonard Sandoval

Associate Attorney

"I have the most satisfying job of anyone I know because the people I get to represent are truly the salt of the earth. Most of them were simply going about living their lives and providing for their families when – through no fault of their own – they were exposed to asbestos. Worse, for the sake of profits, the companies responsible for that exposure failed to give warning or do anything to protect anyone. My job as an attorney is to make these companies pay for their wrongs and provide justice for my clients and their families. It’s never easy, but always satisfying."

Focus: Personal Injury and Malpractice
Gennaro Savastano

Associate Attorney, Appellate Unit

"Fighting to uphold our clients’ well-deserved verdicts is incredibly gratifying. I am proud to be their voice and I am proud to be a part of the Weitz & Luxenberg team."

Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Personal Injury and Malpractice
Jason P. Weinstein

Associate Attorney, Appellate Unit

"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
Perry Weitz

Co-Founding Member

"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."

Focus: Mesothelioma and Asbestos, Defective Drugs and Devices, Personal Injury and Malpractice, Environmental Pollution, Consumer Protection
Nicholas Wise

Senior Attorney

"Cases don’t only turn on facts — it also helps to have the right courtroom strategies and tactics. At Weitz & Luxenberg, we think clients deserve the strongest, most aggressive representation possible, and we’re always ready to provide it."
