Silvia G. Gerges is a SuperLawyers Rising Star. Each year, no more than 2.5% percent of lawyers in each state are selected by the research team at Super Lawyers (a Thomson Reuters Business) to receive this honor. She is known as a fearless and passionate advocate in the courtroom, whose meticulous preparation and extraordinary work ethic frequently puts her several steps ahead of her adversaries. 

​

Silvia has a particular contempt for bullies and a genuine empathy for the suffering of the downtrodden and defenseless, making her especially comfortable representing victims of corporate or government misconduct.

​

Prior to going to law school Seton Hall University, Silvia earned a bachelors and masters degrees with honors in the field of psychology. This background makes her a master of the psychology of the courtroom and gives her a crucial edge whether picking a jury or cross-examining a deceptive defense witness.

​

When she is not litigating on behalf of victims of malpractice, discrimination or negligence, Silvia serves as in-house counsel for a non-profit organization working to protect children and families and is a mother to two beautiful children.
