Joseph Lund Lasher - Profile

As a committed personal injury lawyer at Gair, Gair, Conason, Rubinowitz, Bloom, Hershenhorn, Steigman & Mackauf, I specialize in advocating for individuals who have experienced severe injuries. My legal focus includes cases involving medical negligence, motor vehicle collisions, property liability disputes, violations of labor laws, injuries at construction sites, defective product claims, and wrongful death lawsuits. I am deeply engaged in all aspects of the legal process, from initial inquiries to courtroom trials and settlements, to ensure that every client receives thorough legal representation. My dedication to upholding justice is apparent in my meticulous handling of each case, with the goal of securing complete and equitable compensation for my clients' hardships. I obtained my Juris Doctor degree from Duke University School of Law, where I was recognized as a Robert D. and Susan G. Phillips Scholar. During my tenure at Duke, I held the position of Editor-in-Chief for the Duke Environmental Law & Policy Forum and served as a Lead Editor for the Duke Journal of Comparative & International Law. Additionally, I volunteered at the Duke Law School Health Justice Clinic, where I successfully represented clients in appeals related to the denial of public benefits, such as Social Security Disability and Medicaid. Prior to joining the firm, I spent seven years as a litigator at a prominent multinational law firm, handling complex legal matters for major corporations. Motivated by a desire to champion the rights of individuals, I transitioned to personal injury and medical malpractice law to directly assist those most in need of legal support. I have been honored as a Super Lawyers New York Metro Rising Star for five consecutive years (2020-2024) and maintain active membership in the New York State Trial Lawyers Association.
