In an era when courtroom battles have the ability to shape New York’s legal and societal landscapes, Gersowitz Libo & Korek, P.C., strengthened its reputation for securing high-value resolutions on behalf of injury victims. But those results are also creating meaningful change.
“We’re celebrating our 40th anniversary as a firm, and reached the $1 billion milestone for recoveries and we feel the same energy as if we just opened yesterday,” said GLK Senior Trial Partner Jeff S. Korek, who was named Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” in New York City for Medical Malpractice–Plaintiffs (2020) and Personal Injury Litigation–Plaintiffs (2016). Korek is a former president and long standing Board Member of the New York State Trial Lawyers Association (NYSTLA), and a member of its prestigious LawPAC. “Our results send messages to public entities and well-funded defendants. The types of injury cases we handle have evolved and our growth is commensurate with those changes.”
