The Making of Effective Trial Lawyers
Alan Markman began his career practicing as an associate with Garry Furnari, a formidable litigator who is now a Superior Court judge. They handled both plaintiff cases and insurance defense. This experience gives Mr. Markman an important understanding of the information insurance companies are looking for when settling (or fighting) a personal injury claim.
Alan has over 15 years of legal experience and has devoted his practice solely to plaintiff personal injury representation since 1997.
Robert Cannan attended Thomas M. Cooley Law School and began his career as a trial lawyer determined to protect the rights of his clients. He has successfully recovered millions of dollars in settlements and jury verdicts on behalf of injured clients and the families of accident victims. He has significant experience going up against insurance companies and established medical providers in medical malpractice lawsuits.
Our attorneys are members of the New Jersey Bar, the American Bar Association and the Association Trial Lawyers of America. Additionally, Alan Markman is a lifetime member of the Cambridge Who's Who.
Commitment to Personal Service
"My attorney doesn't get back to me" is the most common complaint of people who have hired a lawyer. Our lawyers can be reached virtually 24 hours a day. They pride themselves on being accessible and promptly returning calls, because a personal injury victim should not have the added stress and frustration of waiting for an answer to an urgent question.
Although our practice focuses primarily on personal injury representation, we also represent clients with legal issues involving DUI defense/traffic violations and residential and commercial real estate transactions. We serve clients in Essex, Union, and Hudson counties.
We meet with clients evenings and weekends, and routinely travel to homes and hospitals to visit the seriously injured. Call for a free consultation at 866-936-7410 toll-free, or contact us online. We have Spanish speakers and Portuguese speakers on staff.
