New York, NY – Nationally recognized class action and mass tort attorney Jason P. Sultzer announced the formal opening of The Sultzer Law Group, P.C., a complex litigation and trial practice.  Headquartered in New York with a presence nationwide, the firm begins operations with a group of seasoned trial lawyers who collectively have over 100 years of experience representing corporate and individual clients in high exposure lawsuits.

“I started The Sultzer Law Group with the goal of creating a firm that is not confined to one particular practice area, but is instead devoted to trial advocacy and resolving high-stakes problems for both individuals and businesses,” says Sultzer. “My primary goals for the firm are: (1.) partnering with our clients and demonstrating that we are committed to providing quality legal services that align directly with our client’s interests. To this end, we have structured our fees so that we have some ‘skin in the game,’ where our success is tied to our clients’ success; (2.) solving complex legal problems for individuals and businesses. Not all cases go to trial, but the outcome of a case is usually determined by whether the opposition is convinced that we are prepared to try the case. Our clients have a significant advantage during negotiations because we are battle-tested and we know how to try cases; and (3.) following a lean and tech-savvy model that eliminates paper and enables our lawyers to have immediate access to all case materials at the office, at a deposition or at trial, without having to rely on layers of support personnel.” Sultzer is AV®-Preeminent rated by Martindale-Hubble®, was selected for inclusion in Super Lawyers® from 2011-2013, has been described by LAW 360 as the “Asbestos Guru,” and was named a “2013 Top Rated Lawyer in Mass Tort Law” by American Law Media.

“I’m enthusiastic about our client-focused model,” says Joseph Lipari, a partner with the firm. “We’ve invested in technologies that allow us to access and analyze information quickly and effectively and to present complex concepts and arguments clearly at trial.”  Lipari is the managing partner for the firm’s New Jersey and Pennsylvania offices. He is AV®- Preeminent rated by Martindale-Hubbell® and was recently named a “2013 Top Rated Lawyer in Mass Tort Law” by American Law Media.
