Founding Partner
Alan J. Stern began his legal career in 1983 by representing doctors and hospitals in medical malpractice cases and in defending municipalities, school districts, manufacturers and large companies in complex tort litigation. He then became a plaintiffs attorney for one of the most successful firms in its time, honed his skills and zealously represented injured victims. In 1992, he left a large, multi-national law firm and went out on his own, and methodically built a successful and widely respected law firm, which enjoys a fine reputation among the best in the legal community.
After over 35 years of aggressively litigating clients’ claims, he is uniquely qualified and knowledgeable at handling a full array of multifaceted cases in State Courts, as well as Federal Courts. The firm is geared to protect and preserve all the clients’ rights, guiding them through claims processing, litigation, trial and through appeal, if necessary. He fights hard for his clients so they can rest comfortably, re-build their lives and concentrate on the business of healing.
Mr. Stern is well-known in the legal community, has consistently received the highest peer review rating by Martindale-Hubbell for skill and integrity, and is highly respected by judges and fellow attorneys in the legal community having established a reputation for powerful lawyering, preparation, thoroughness, and an aggressive and tireless approach of fighting for his clients to secure the maximum recovery on each case. His outstanding results stand as proof of his abilities. He is often written up in the New York Jury Verdict Reporter. He is the consummate lawyer’s lawyer and has built his practice from referrals, not just from satisfied clients, but often from other attorneys as well.
At the Stern Law Firm, we pride ourselves on handling all types of New York personal injury and negligence cases such as serious auto accidents, wrongful death, brain and spinal cord injuries, slip & falls, trip & falls, defective products, medical malpractice, and accidents caused by carelessness. We have over 35 years of personal injury experience and have amassed expertise in helping people recover damages from their losses by collecting the highest awards for our clients.
Our initial confidential conversation about your case is free of charge or obligation. We only charge a fee at the end of the case when we recover an award or settlement for you. Our fees are based on a percentage of the recovery as set by law and your only other responsibility is for the shared expenses disbursed (doctor reports, court fees, experts, etc) which in most cases are advanced by us during the case and deducted off the top of the recovery at the conclusion of the lawsuit.
