About Weingrad

Weingrad & Weingrad, LLP as a partnership was founded in 1966 by Stephen A. Weingrad and his father, the late Samuel B. Weingrad (1907 - 1992). The elder Mr. Weingrad limited his practice to commercial litigation and insurance defense. He moved his offices into the Empire State Building in 1952, where they have been ever since.

Today Weingrad & Weingrad, LLP is a general practice firm with its practice in state and federal courts limited to litigation, appeals, arbitration, business law, commercial law, intellectual property law, corporations, estates, trusts, family law, real estate transactions and tort law, including medical malpractice, products liability, personal injury, serious injuries, slip and fall, automobile accidents, and industrial accidents.

Most cases handled by Weingrad & Weingrad, LLP are on a contingency fee basis. Therefore, Weingrad & Weingrad, LLP only receives a fee for legal services if there is a money recovery for our client. This fee arrangement ensures that our best efforts will be given to every case.

Cases handled by Weingrad & Weingrad, LLP are processed and prepared for trial and submission to a judge and jury. While many cases are settled prior to trial, in order to serve the best interests of our clients, we are always prepared for trial. It is our philosophy that by being prepared for trial, we receive the highest settlement offers.
