As the firm’s Litigation Manager, Attorney Rosenzweig mentors young associates, creates and implements litigation department procedures, and conducts continuing education of the legal staff on litigation strategies, techniques, and breaking legal decisions.

Attorney Rosenzweig excels at representing clients in cases that are complex and difficult to win – such as those where at first blush the client may appear to be at fault for his or her own injuries. “Only by getting every fact and talking to every important witness can an excellent lawyer unearth the truth and thereby obtain complete justice for his clients. I pursue each case with a profound appreciation of the trust my clients place in me when they choose me to handle what is likely the most important legal matter they have ever had in their lives.”

Attorney Rosenzweig has argued appellate cases before both the Superior and Supreme Courts of Pennsylvania. He has represented clients in all types of personal injury cases.

"My goal is to solve my client’s problems without delay and in a dignified and ethical manner. A seriously injured person has many important issues that arise simultaneously and urgently. It is our job to address our clients’ needs as they arise and as soon as possible. This often requires us to go down multiple paths at the same time. I have been described as ‘tenacious’ – I don’t shy from a fight if it is warranted. I have dedicated my career to helping injured and disadvantaged people. I believe our clients need – and deserve – the best representation possible to go toe to toe against the insurance and corporate giants that must be faced."

Jury Verdicts and Settlements

Attorney Rosenzweig works hard to recover the money damages our clients deserve whether by settlements or jury verdicts. His accomplishments include six, seven, and eight-figure verdicts. He has successfully tried jury trials in both Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
