Professional Experience

For nearly four decades, the Philadelphia personal injury attorneys at Reiff Law Firm have dedicated their careers to standing up for those injured due to negligence and wrongdoing. As a seasoned personal injury trial attorney in Philadelphia, I’ve always been driven by a relentless pursuit of justice—some call it obsession. I call it commitment.

Justice means ensuring every person receives what they are rightfully owed. At its core, it’s about defending individual rights—the cornerstone of a free society. In my experience, a single moment can change everything. One tragic accident can unravel a life, triggering immense physical, emotional, and financial strain. When a family loses a loved one or faces catastrophic injury, the impact is often overwhelming and deeply personal.

At Reiff Law Firm, we understand these moments of crisis. For nearly 40 years, we’ve fought on behalf of individuals and families navigating the hardest times of their lives. Our mission is not just to win cases, but to help people find peace, heal, and begin rebuilding their lives. We never forget that behind each case is a story—a story of lost dreams, disrupted futures, and the need for hope. That’s what we work to restore.

Every story we’re entrusted with is sacred. And while no two are alike, they share a universal truth: when people are wronged, they deserve to be heard and vindicated. Our role is to present those stories with compassion, clarity, and conviction—to highlight not only what happened, but how the aftermath has affected every aspect of our clients’ lives. Recovery is about more than money—it’s about restoring dignity and offering the possibility of a better future.

Throughout my legal career, I’ve helped clients secure millions in verdicts and settlements, many reaching six, seven, and even eight figures. I’ve had the honor of being featured and recognized by respected organizations and media outlets including The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, CBS, NBC, CNN, USA Today, Reuters, Philadelphia Magazine, and more. I’ve also contributed regularly as a speaker and commentator on issues involving product liability, commercial vehicle crashes, and amusement park safety.

Reiff Law Firm is nationally respected for its work on complex injury and wrongful death cases. We’ve recovered over $250 million for clients injured by careless individuals, dangerous products, and corporations that put profits ahead of safety. With only one chance to pursue full compensation, choosing the right legal team is critical. Our Philadelphia-based trial attorneys bring not just experience, but unmatched dedication and personal investment to every case.

We don’t just pursue compensation—we demand accountability. Corporations and insurers must answer for their misconduct, and our team is built to take them on. We collaborate with investigators, medical professionals, and subject matter experts to build compelling cases and pursue justice with integrity.

Our accolades speak to our commitment. We’ve been selected as Pennsylvania Super Lawyers every year since inception, included in Best Lawyers in America and Best Law Firms in America, and are proud members of the Million Dollar and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forums. I’ve personally been named one of Philadelphia’s Top 100 Lawyers by Super Lawyers and received top distinctions from Martindale-Hubbell, AVVO, and the National Trial Lawyers Association.

Integrity is the bedrock of everything we do. Without it, there can be no justice.

If you’ve been injured or lost someone you love, let our decades of experience and dedication work for you. We offer free, confidential consultations with no obligation—and you won’t pay unless we win. References are available upon request.

At Reiff Law Firm, we’re not just attorneys—we’re advocates, partners, and storytellers. Let us tell your story, fight your fight, and help you reclaim your future.
