Napoli Bern, LLP has a cumulative total of over 40 years of experience in prosecuting personal injury actions on behalf of its clients. The firm’s litigation practice is focused on mass tort, medical malpractice, products liability, and negligence actions. The firm’s verdict record is in the millions of dollars and one of our senior partners is a member of the "invitation only" Million Dollar Advocates Forum. We have been instrumental in the development of new law in the area of personal injury law.
We work on all of our cases with legal/medical professionals that are "in house," as well as experts in the fields of pathology, neurology, oncology, cardiology, toxicology, pharmacology, accident reconstruction and surgery to name a few. All of this is done to prepare our client’s cases for litigation. Our "in house" staff includes a physician/attorney and a registered nurse that help our attorneys ensure that our clients’ cases are examined from the proper medical perspective.
Some of the local, national and multinational entities that we have obtained successful verdicts and settlements against include:
- Amtrak
- Enterprise Rent-A-Car
- Intrepid Sea, Air and Space
- Aqueduct Racetrack
- Museum
- American Airlines
- Federal Express Corporation
- Hertz Claim Management
- China Airlines

A primary reason for our success in litigation is our firm’s reputation for a willingness to proceed to trial, if necessary. We presently have five attorneys with substantial trial experience and we are trial counsel to approximately ten firms throughout the tri-state area. Our aggregate verdicts reach into the millions of dollars.
In part because of the firm's achievements, we have currently been appointed Liaison Counsel to the Steering Committee for the New York Plaintiff's mass tort Fen-Phen litigation.
Napoli Bern, LLP was formed in 1997 by the merger of Napoli & Associates, LLP and Kaiser & Hirsch. Two firms with a combined history of over forty years at the forefront of the legal community.
A substantial portion of our client referrals come to us from former and present clients. This is a testimonial to the quality of legal representation afforded to each of our clients.
The contingent fee arrangement we have with the vast majority of our clients affords them access to the caliber of representation which Napoli Bern offers and which would normally be financially unavailable to them on a billable hour retainer arrangement.
Napoli Bern, LLP, handles many types of severe injury cases including medical malpractice, job site accidents, defective products, lead poisoning, cases against municipalities, personal injury, wrongful death, brain damaged infants, automobile accidents, and other complex liability matters.
