Samuel Fishman is the founding and lead partner of the Law Offices of Samuel Fishman, P.C. For more than two decades he has represented seriously injured people in Pennsylvania and New Jersey state and federal courts, concentrating his practice on personal injury and workers’ compensation.
Background
Mr. Fishman earned his law degree from Temple University Beasley School of Law and graduated with honors from Brandeis University. As a Philadelphia trial lawyer, he has recovered substantial compensation for injured clients — results that reflect the facts of those cases; every case is different, and past outcomes don’t guarantee future results.
How He Built the Firm
Two convictions shaped the practice: injured people deserve the same quality of representation insurance companies buy, and they deserve to understand their own case. The first drives the firm’s trial-ready preparation in matters from car accidents to workers’ compensation; the second drives the multi-lingual staff and plain-English client communication the office is organized around. Attorney standing can be verified through the PA Disciplinary Board.
