Firm Information
Overview
Weitz & Luxenberg was established in the mid-1980s by Perry Weitz and Arthur Luxenberg with the mission of advocating for victims who otherwise might not have a voice in the legal system. Our creation coincided with a significant legislative change in New York, which allowed workers who had been harmed by asbestos exposure to sue responsible parties upon discovering their injuries. Our founders aimed to provide clients with the same high-caliber legal representation that large corporations use to defend against injury lawsuits.
Over the past 30 years, Weitz & Luxenberg has established itself as being one of the leading law firms in representing clients exposed to asbestos, securing $8.5 billion in recoveries. Our dedicated team of 500 attorneys and support staff works tirelessly to ensure that clients receive the highest possible compensation for their injuries. Our lawyers have negotiated billion-dollar settlements for victims of defective drugs and devices, environmental pollution, consumer fraud and accidents.
Our attorneys have secured approximately $19 billion in verdicts and settlements for over 55,000 clients. Notable achievements include a $9 billion jury verdict against Takeda Pharmaceuticals and Eli Lilly. They have also negotiated billion-dollar settlements with Johnson & Johnson's DePuy and other manufacturers for clients who suffered severe medical complications from defective hip implants. In the multidistrict litigation against Stryker for its Rejuvenate and ABGII modular hip implants, our team helped negotiate a global settlement program exceeding $1 billion for clients affected by these defective products.
In Los Angeles, California, our attorneys bring the same dedication and proficiency to their work to achieve fair results and provide top-tier legal representation, ensuring that those they represent receive the justice and compensation they deserve.
