The Difference
Most firms have tried cases. Very few have decided them.
A judge’s perspective
Adam Glassman served fifteen years as a New York State Administrative Law Judge. He has weighed evidence from the bench — so he builds cases the way judges actually decide them.
A professor’s rigor
Seventeen years as a professor of law (1997–2014) — at Baruch’s Zicklin School of Business, Macaulay Honors College, and Hunter College — shaped a practice defined by preparation, clarity, and command of the details.
A boutique’s attention
You are never handed off. You work directly with the attorney handling your case — with calls returned, questions answered, and strategy explained in plain English.
Practice Areas
Focused where it matters most.
Injury and wrongful-death litigation is the core of the practice, supported by a select counsel practice in real estate, business, and estates.
Injury & Litigation
Counsel & Transactions
Results
Judged by outcomes, not promises.
Every case is different, and prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. But preparation has a track record.
What to Expect
A clear path through an unclear time.
Consultation
A free, confidential conversation about what happened and what your options are — with the attorney, not an intake service.
Investigation
We move quickly to preserve evidence, secure records, retain experts, and identify every responsible party and policy.
Litigation
Every case is prepared as if it will be tried. Insurers know which firms are ready for a courtroom — and value cases accordingly.
Resolution
Settlement or verdict, the goal is the same: the full measure of what the law allows, on your timeline — not the insurer’s.
Beyond helpful and professional. Every call was returned, every step was explained, and I always knew exactly where my case stood.— Christine G., client
