A Nationwide Law Practice

Bernstein Liebhard LLP is a New York-based law firm exclusively representing injured persons in complex individual and class action lawsuits nationwide since 1993, including those who have been harmed by dangerous drugs, defective medical devices and consumer products. The Firm has been named by The National Law Journal to the “Plaintiffs’ Hot List,” recognizing the top plaintiffs’ firms in the country for the past ten consecutive years. Only two firms in the country have been selected for the Hot List ten years in a row.

Our trial attorneys have handled hundreds of cases on behalf of injured consumers and shareholders, recovering over $3 billion for our clients. We have achieved this level of success for our clients by bringing together a unique array of talent. Our ranks include former attorneys with prominent national law firms, former prosecutors, former regulatory attorneys, former U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals law clerks, former U.S. district court law clerks, in-house investigators, and other expert staff. In short, when we face off against large corporations, their attorneys and their insurance companies know that we are experienced, trial ready and go the extra mile to bring home wins for our clients. And our clients rest assured that their rights are being protected by highly experienced counsel.

In addition to investigating and evaluating claims concerning a wide array of dangerous drugs, defective medical devices and consumer products, the Firm is actively representing individuals who are pursuing a Fosamax lawsuit; individuals who were affected by the ASR DePuy hip replacement recall; individuals who were injured by a DePuy Pinnacle hip replacement; individuals who suffered complications as a result of transvaginal mesh; and individuals who were injured as a result of cell phone radiation exposure.
