He goes the extra mile
Paul came to my house to talk with me. That wouldn't seem odd, except for the fact that I lived in Silver Spring, Maryland and he drove from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. He was very kind to me, considering the circumstances. I felt then, and still do, that he would do his absolute best for me, because he understood.

Medical malpractice Attorney | May 20
Relationship: Co-worker
"Case after case, Paul Lagnese gets great results for his clients. I have watched Paul, time and again, take a case that did not look promising at the outset and turn it into a substantial monetary award for his client. How does he do this? First, Paul is very smart. But smarts alone are never enough to succeed as a trial lawyer. What sets Paul apart as a plaintiff's medical malpractice lawyer are his lawyering instincts and his courage to stand by what he believes. His instincts consistently lead him to see the very best way to handle a case, or a situation within a case; and his remarkable courage enables him to go up against the very best defense lawyers and win, time and again. Alongside Joshua Berger, Esquire, I would place Paul Lagnese at the top of the list of lawyers I have had the privilege of working with."
