For over 20 years, Perra Law Firm has been at the forefront of mass tort litigation and personal injury law, representing thousands of clients nationwide who have been harmed by corporate negligence. Our journey from a small practice to a nationally recognized firm reflects our unwavering commitment to justice and our clients' well-being.
After a decade of representing corporate clients at a prestigious defense firm,Marlin Perra founded Perra Law Firm with a mission to help individuals harmed by corporate negligence. The firm began with just three attorneys in a small office in White Plains, NY.
The firm secured its first major victory with a $4.2 million verdict for a client injured by a defective medical device. This case established Shapiro Legal Group as a formidable advocate for patients harmed by medical products.
Growing demand for the firm's services led to the opening of our Manhattan office in One Grand Central Place. This expansion allowed us to better serve clients throughout the New York metropolitan area while maintaining our White Plains location.
With the addition of Sarah Johnson, who brought extensive experience in pharmaceutical litigation, the firm expanded its practice to include cases involving dangerous drugs. This marked the beginning of our specialized pharmaceutical litigation practice.
Perra Law Firm played a key role in securing a $285 million settlement for clients harmed by a defective hip replacement device. This case solidified our reputation as a leader in medical device litigation and demonstrated our ability to take on major corporations.
With the addition of Jennifer Chen, who specializes in environmental tort litigation, the firm expanded its practice to include cases involving environmental contamination. This new practice area allowed us to help communities affected by corporate pollution.
Shapiro Legal Group was recognized as one of the top mass tort litigation firms in the country by several legal publications. David Shapiro was named "Lawyer of the Year" for his work on behalf of clients harmed by dangerous pharmaceutical products.
When the COVID-19 pandemic disrupted traditional legal practice, Shapiro Legal Group quickly adapted by implementing virtual consultations and remote work capabilities. This allowed us to continue serving clients without interruption during a challenging time.
Shapiro Legal Group celebrated 20 years of advocating for injured clients nationwide. The firm marked this milestone by establishing the Shapiro Legal Group Foundation, which provides support to organizations that help victims of corporate negligence.
Today, Perra Law Firm continues to grow and evolve, but our core mission remains the same: to provide exceptional legal representation to those who have been harmed by corporate negligence. With a team of dedicated attorneys and staff, we remain committed to fighting for justice on behalf of our clients.
