About Thomas
Biography
I have been handling medical malpractice and personal injury litigation for injured plaintiffs since first going into private practice in September 1988. While I delved into many practice areas in my early years, since 2003, I have worked exclusivley on medical malpractice and plaintiff's personal injury litigation.
People come to me when they are hurting physically and emotionally because of someone else's misconduct. It is rewarding to help them receive justice and to make a positive difference in their lives.
This year I am serving as President of the New Jersey Association for Justice. NJAJ is the state wide trial lawyers association and I am proud to be able to use my talents and experience to help protect the peoples access to justice in our courthouses.

Sample of Legal Cases

$1,000,000 Settlement just prior to jury selection, which represented the doctors available insurance.
Pat v. Fire Chief
$2,000,000.00 verdict later settled with both defendants for a confidential amount
Committee to Recall Theresa Cassagrande V. Theresa Cassagrande, 304 N.J. Super. 421 (App. Div. 1997)
We were successful before the trial Judge and the Appellate Division unanimously agreed and dismissed the recall being brought against my client, Theresa Cassagrande.
Oswin v. Shaw, 129 N.J. 290
The Court created new rules for plaintiffs to satisfy to successfully prosecute a verbal threshold case. Years later the Supreme Court reversed itself and our original position was vindicated. Not that that helped Annie Oswin.
