Our Values
Board-Certified Trial Attorneys
Under the Supreme Court of the State of New Jersey, our attorneys hold board certifications in the following areas:
- Workers’ Compensation Law (4)
- Civil Trial Law (3)
From the Supreme Court of New Jersey – Board on Attorney Certification:
“Attorneys may be designated by the Supreme Court as “certified attorneys” if they: are able to demonstrate sufficient levels of experience, education, knowledge and skill in a specific area of law or practice; have passed a rigorous examination; and have been recognized by their peers as having sufficient skills and reputation in the designated specialty.”
Less than 3% of attorneys throughout the state hold a Supreme Court board certification. With multiple board-certified trial attorneys on our staff, our firm strives to exceed the highest standards of excellence in our practice.
As members of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, partners Adam Kotlar and José Hernandez have joined one of the most prestigious groups of trial attorneys in the United States.

Certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy as a Civil Trial Law Advocate, partner Adam Kotlar has proven and tested his experience and expertise in the actual trials of litigated disputes, in addition to evaluating, handling, and resolving civil controversies prior to the initiation of suit and prior to trial.
We Put People First
Throughout our 27-year history, we’ve been known to put our clients’ needs above ours. Some call it empathy – we call it good business. We take care of our clients and genuinely care for their well-being.
At the end of the day, it’s simple: We care. We fight. And we win.
It’s in our DNA.
