The Perecman Firm Receives Recognition for 5 of the 100 Largest New York Verdicts in 2010

The Perecman Firm shines on the Verdict Search list with four major awards for clients injured in construction accidents, and one significant award for a client injured in a premises liability accident.

    NEW YORK, NY, August 10, 2011 /Building and Construction PR News/ -- The Perecman Firm, PLLP, a New York law firm that represents workers injured in construction accidents and other victims of personal injuries, was recognized in the recently released Verdict Search's Top NY Verdicts of 2010 for its work in obtaining five of the 100 largest awards in New York in 2010.

The New York Law Journal, in conjunction with Verdict Search, puts out the Top NY Verdicts annually. This supplement is a compilation of the top verdicts in New York last year in a variety of categories ranging from medical malpractice to motor vehicle accidents to construction accidents and more. Verdicts are ranked by gross award and do not reflect reductions imposed by the court, attorney fees and costs (unless awarded by the jury).

"We're honored that our firm appears five times on this annual report in a city where there are so many outstanding legal minds. We will continue to be successful at helping our clients obtain just compensation for the injuries they suffered," said David Perecman, founder of The Perecman Firm.

The Perecman Firm was sole plaintiff's counsel in all five of the 100 largest awards in the state last year.

Among the results obtained by the NYC personal injury lawyers from The Perecman were four multimillion-dollar settlements for construction workers who were injured on construction sites. Also included on the 2010 Top NY Verdicts of 100 list was an award for a man injured after tripping in a tree well while visiting the Bronx zoo.
