Nationwide Trial & Personal Injury Attorneys

Nationwide Trial Attorneys:

Over three decades ago, Douglas E. Fierberg expanded his trial practice in Washington D.C. beyond vehicle accidents, premises liability, and catastrophic personal injury cases, to establish and include the only legal practice representing school violence and hazing victims and survivors nationwide. As the leading law firm that developed this field, we have successfully represented clients in some of the most high-profile cases related to these issues. Unlike other law firms, we have established precedent up to the U.S. Supreme Court and created systemic change for our clients, leading Inside Higher Ed to report, “Fierberg is leading one of the most significant college discipline lawsuits in higher education.” If you’re evaluating lawyers to represent you, ask the attorneys you’re interviewing if they have successfully initiated ground-breaking lawsuits in this particular field of law that have received this distinction and caused one of the largest public universities in the country to petition – and lose before – the Supreme Court in requesting relief from its losses and the precedent set in the federal trial and appellate courts.

Our lawyers create, and then lead, legal teams that merge our national expertise with the capabilities of local attorneys to get you the best legal representation. Our attorneys have the training, experience, and confidence necessary to overcome tough legal obstacles and well-heeled lawyers, wherever located. California? Multiple wins (reforms and monetary) for our clients. New York? Multiple wins. Louisiana, Virginia, Ohio, North Carolina, Michigan, Texas, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Colorado . . . won, won, won. We do keep score because what matters so much to our clients truly matters to everyone associated with this law firm. We are very particular in selecting the people and issues we represent, and how such representation advances compelling rights and values shared by the client, the firm, and its attorneys. 

We have obtained and collected over $375 Million in verdicts and settlements against individuals, corporations, fraternities, educational institutions, enablers, liars, and con-apologists responsible for harming our clients. While financial recoveries are important, and it is not unusual for firms to tout such results, we take great pride in our unmatched record of establishing legal precedent in numerous states, in both Federal and State Courts, obtaining non-economic concessions and accommodations from Defendants, and creating meaningful legacies and foundations for our clients.

Our legal team has the training, experience, and confidence necessary to overcome tough legal obstacles and well-heeled lawyers. If we are not licensed to practice in the state where tragedy has occurred, we obtain special permission to practice and associate ourselves with qualified local trial counsel – combining local attorneys with national expertise – giving you the best legal representation.
