About Anthony Henry Gair
I am a partner at Gair, Gair, Conason, Rubinowitz, Bloom, Hershenhorn Steigman & Mackauf. I joined the firm in 1980, and specialize in preparing and trying New York personal injury cases including construction accidents, defective products, medical malpractice and automobile accidents. I have also tried numerous cases against the City of New York, one of which involved the City's failure to erect and place proper barriers on Rockaway Turnpike, a case which resulted in a multi-million dollar jury verdict.
My goal is to help people injured by the negligence and carelessness of others-- especially people whose lives are destroyed by corporations who place more emphasis on corporate profits than responsibility and safety. I have also expended countless hours in advising younger attorneys on how to effectively represent people who have suffered catastrophic injuries and taught at Fordham University School of Law in the Continuing Legal Education program. I am a life-time member of Scribes-American Society of Writers on Legal Subjects as well as a member of the Roscoe Pound Foundation. I was a recipient of The New York State Trial Lawyers’ Civil Justice Honor Award in 2006.
