Why Are Philadelphia Lawyers Reported To Be Some Of The Best In The World?
Since 1788, “Philadelphia lawyer” has been a term often used to describe a lawyer who knows the most detailed and minute points of law or is an exceptionally competent lawyer. Philadelphia-based colonial American lawyer, Andrew Hamilton, a lawyer best known for his legal victory on behalf of printer and newspaper publisher John Peter Zenger is believed to have been the inspiration behind the term “Philadelphia lawyer.”
As an experienced Pennsylvania serious injury and Pennsylvania car accident lawyer who has traveled around the world on professional business for the last 31 years, people are always impressed when I tell them with pride that I am a Philadelphia lawyer. I am repeatedly told that in many people’s opinions the best lawyers come from Philadelphia. While this may be a generalization, I can honestly state that I am very proud to be a Philadelphia trial lawyer committed to achieving justice since 1979. Many people may say that trial lawyers such as myself are greedy and I freely admit that yes I am greedy, “greedy for justice.” Justice is a virtue that assigns to every person who sustains a catastrophic injury or death their due and protection of their rights which is in the greatest interest of every man and woman on earth.
I know that from practicing personal injury law for over three decades that lives can change completely in a tragic instant. A severe and catastrophic personal injury brings life altering financial, emotional, and personal pressures upon one that seems insurmountable. The catastrophic injury or loss of a loved one forever changes one’s family dynamic and outlook and therefore, it is important that the client be guided by a committed Philadelphia lawyer with genuine compassion and skilled legal guidance and experience to navigate the sudden obstacles of an already complicated life.
