In 2007, Galfand Berger senior partner Richard Jurewicz obtained settlements in two of the top twelve highest grossing cases in the entire Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. According to the "Top Cases of 2007" supplement published by The Legal Intelligencer on March 10, 2008, Galfand Berger's settlements of $10.65 million and $8 million were ranked #7 and #12 among all cases that reached a verdict or settlement last year.

Mr. Jurewicz was able to obtain a $10.65 million dollar settlement for the family of a maintenance worker and his co-worker who were doused in sulfuric acid while working at a battery company. The accident left one man dead and the other badly burned. To read more about this case, click here.

Mr. Jurewicz obtained an $8 million dollar settlement for a construction worker who was paralyzed from the waist down following a fall at a construction site. To read more about this case, click here.

What makes these rankings most impressive is the fact that these cases are being ranked along side class-action suits, intellectual property cases and Federal Criminal Fraud cases that traditionally result in verdicts or settlements that are significantly higher than those obtained in individual personal injury cases.
