Upstate New York's premier personal injury law firm. Personal injury is our only practice. We have represented thousands of victims. Since the founding of the practice in 1976, we have obtained many significant settlements and verdicts.

     The firm's experience and expertise is exemplified by the numerous cases and precedents set by our firm in published case reports and trials throughout the State of New York. We work on contingent fee, which means we only get paid if we are successful in the obtaining of a recovery for you. If your case cannot be resolved by a settlement, you can rest assured that we have extensive courtroom experience.

     Unfortunately, there are some cases that cannot be resolved without a trial. If that occurs in your case you will be represented by Robert E. Lahm, Judith R. Wright, and Janet M. Izzo - lawyers who know the courtroom and have tried many cases to verdict before jury.

     Robert is a well known expert on Trial Advocacy and frequently lectures on the subject. He has written exam questions for the Civil Trial Advocacy Bar Examination and has lectured at seminars for the New York State Bar Association, NYSTLA and other seminars. He is a frequent Lecturer for the New York State Academy of Trial Lawyers. He was also an Adjunct Associate Professor at the State University of New York Medical University for thirteen years. 

     After the September 11, 2001 attack on the World Trade Center, Robert and the firm joined with the Association of Trial Lawyers of America in forming Trial Lawyers Care (TLC). They represented several victims of the tragedy without compensation. The founding goal of TLC was to provide representation to the families of the victims who were killed and injured without compensation to the individual lawyers and law firms. 

     He is admitted to practice in the state of New York; The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Federal District Courts in New York and Pennsylvania and the Federal 2nd Circuit Court of Appeals.
