ultimately led to brain damage. The client is now disabled, with permanent damage to the muscles in his abdominal wall, recurrent incisional abdominal hernias, short-term memory deficits, and cognitive deficits. “We put a lot of time and effort behind the cases we believe in. We tend to do very well,” says Crutchlow, a partner selected to Best Lawyers for medical malpractice law and personal injury litigation. “We recognize the enormous responsibility of representing patients and their families,” adds partner Daryl L. Zaslow, selected to Best Lawyers for medical malpractice since 2011. He has successfully litigated numerous wrongful birth and birth injury cases. After several weeks of trial, Zaslow recently obtained a $4.65 million settlement on behalf of a 7-year-old boy with Down syndrome and his parents. Zaslow was successful in proving the physicians providing prenatal care deviated from the accepted standards of care in their interpretation of a second trimester ultrasound, which Zaslow argued showed the presence of two “soft markers” for Down syndrome. Zaslow maintained that the parents needed to be informed of these markers so they could make an informed decision whether to pursue an invasive amniocentesis. The number of injuries and deaths due to medical malpractice are on the rise. People are starting to realize this and are looking for top legal representation to help them hold the medical care providers accountable for their mistakes. “That’s where we come in,” Eichen observes. “That’s smart—that’s actually a good thing.”

ringing medical personnel in-house isn’t something every top medical malpractice and personal injury law firm does, but having such expertise on tap is part of Eichen Crutchlow Zaslow & McElroy’s winning strategy. Eichen Crutchlow Zaslow & McElroy is one of New Jersey’s premier personal injury firms and is ranked a Tier 1 2016 firm for medical malpractice law and mass tort litigation class actions by U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms.” The plaintiff firm, which also focuses on consumer fraud and wrongful death litigation, has offices in Edison, Red Bank, and Toms River, New Jersey. “Medical malpractice is a real specialty,” says founding partner Barry R. Eichen, “Lawyer of the Year” honoree for mass tort litigation and class actions in the Woodbridge metro area in 2016. Having a doctor and nurse on staff at the firm enables the attorneys to knowledgeably and effectively advocate for their clients in complex medical disputes from the very start, he notes. One recent case illustrates the far-reaching complications a medical mistake can cause. Eichen Crutchlow Zaslow & McElroy’s William O. Crutchlow secured a $1.01 million jury verdict for a man in his late 50s who suffered a potentially life-threatening bowel injury during routine laparoscopic gall bladder removal surgery. The injury, undetected at the time of the surgery, caused a massive infection after allowing bacteria-filled intestinal content to leak into the client’s abdominal cavity. The client required emergency surgery, and suffered lung failure and acute respiratory distress syndrome, which

In order to collect feedback on firm and attorney work within specific regions, Best Lawyers curates “metro areas.” For research purposes, smaller and more rural cities located within a reasonable distance to larger cities are combined into single geographical regions—metro areas—to help us collect as much feedback and data for specific individuals, firms, and practice areas, as possible. We also award “Lawyer of the Year” accolades through these metro area distinctions.

WOMEN IN THE LAW
Leading the Way
Best Lawyers-listed women attorneys honored as executive policy makers.
T
hree women attorneys named to the Best Lawyers list again this year were celebrated at the Executive Women of New Jersey’s “Salute to the Policy Makers” biennial gala, held this spring in East Brunswick, New Jersey. Executive Women of New Jersey (EWNJ) presidentelect Michellene Davis, who is executive vice president and chief corporate affairs officer of RWJBarnabas Health and who chaired the gala, spoke to the value of honoring executive women for their achievements, saying: “There is a persistent misconception that the reason women are underrepresented in top corporate leadership is because there are not enough qualified women to assume these positions. This false perception creates a barrier to women’s advancement, which is why highlighting the multitude of well-qualified women is so essential.”
Susan A. Feeney (litigation and controversy – tax, 2005) of McCarter & English, Galit Kierkut (commercial litigation; litigation – labor and employment, 2013) of Sills Cummis & Gross, and Liza M. Walsh (commercial litigation; litigation – ERISA; litigation – patent, 2007) of Walsh Pizzi O’Reilly Falanga were among the 38 executive women from both the private and public sectors honored at the event. Feeney is a partner in her firm’s tax and employee benefits practice group and is a past president of the New Jersey State Bar Association. Kierkut is an executive board member and past president of the New Jersey Women Lawyers Association and partner in her firm’s labor and employment practice. Walsh, who co-founded a new law firm in May (see above), counsels and represents business clients in a wide array of legal areas and is a fellow of the American Bar Association.

Arnold Shep Cohen EMPLOYMENT LAW – INDIVIDUALS
“I find it rewarding to help people who need improvement in their work situations,” says Arnold Newark, New Jersey Shep Cohen, member of the firm Oxfeld Cohen. “And my overall goal as an employment lawyer is to help to improve the dignity of the workplace whenever possible.” Cohen has been in practice for more than 35 years and concentrates his practice on private and public sector employment issues, employee benefits, and labor law. For the past 19 years, Cohen has been the host of a weekly radio show called “The World of Work” on WDVR-FM, and he teaches courses at the Rutgers School of Law on arbitration, labor negotiations, and alternative dispute resolution, and has been an adjunct law professor at the university for more than 30 years. “My whole life revolves around work and work-related issues,” Cohen admits. “My father was a milkman and a member of the Teamsters Union, and I have always been attracted to helping workers make their lives better.” In one of Cohen’s major cases, IFPTE, Local 195 v. The New Jersey Department of Corrections, he convinced the New Jersey Supreme Court that it should reverse a 140-year common law precedent on the theory of “no work no pay.” “The decision opened up a whole new area of potential relief for public employees,” notes Cohen. “Prior to this decision, public employees did not have a common-law back-pay remedy when a public employer breached a contractual obligation. The supreme court found this to be an anachronism, and now if a public sector employee is improperly deprived of work, that worker can get pay as a remedy in a legal action. All public employers will now have second thoughts about violating the contractual rights of their employees, because they can be hit with back-pay. It is a major victory for public employees state wide.” Cohen is an officer on the board of trustees of the Botto House and the American Labor Museum, a fellow in the College of Labor and Employment lawyers, is admitted to practice in both New Jersey and New York, and has six reported decisions with the New Jersey Supreme Court. He is a recipient of the Good Corporate Citizenship Award by the United Negro College Fund and a recipient of the Aberdeen David Award by District 1199J for his contributions to the labor movement. Cohen is married with three children. He has been listed in The Best Lawyers in America for employment law – individuals since 1995. BY NATHANIEL BARR www.bestlawyers.com |

“The drive to advocate for people who have suffered real injuries is embodied in the firm’s structure.” –BARRY R. EICHEN LEFT TO RIGHT: EDWARD MCELROY, BARRY R. EICHEN, DARYL L. ZASLOW, WILLIAM O. CRUTCHLOW

A Rebel with a Cause Eichen Crutchlow Zaslow & McElroy: A Firm Fighting for the Injured.
B
BY MARGARET PIERCE
arry R. Eichen is the founder of Eichen Crutchlow Zaslow & McElroy, LLP. He began his practice representing the underdog. He wins cases others avoid. An experienced trial attorney with more than 100 cases behind him, Eichen describes one of his first cases involving a young man from his hometown: “His clothes were dirty, his face was scarred,” Eichen says. “He said
someone hit him with a beer bottle at a bar and none of the bouncers helped him. The first attorney, who knew the owner, called him a dirt bag and told him to take $5,000 and go away.” The jury awarded $400,000, enabling the young man to attend college, law school, and work for the prosecutor’s office. He now runs his own practice.
THE COMBINED POWER OF EXPERIENCE AND COMMITMENT Eichen has won many multimilliondollar awards for clients, the largest being $51 million. Eichen’s first “Ford rollover” case resulted in a $10.6 million verdict. His first asbestosrailroad case resulted in a $19.2 million verdict. His first class action settlement was a $30 million recovery. His first obstetrical malpractice case, a $5.5 million recovery. The firm handles cases arising from life-changing injury or the death of a loved one because of negligence. “The drive to advocate for people who have suffered real injuries is embodied in the firm’s structure,” Eichen says. Eichen’s partners William Crutchlow and Daryl Zaslow add decades of experience and long track records of multimillion dollar recoveries for their clients to the firm chemistry.
Crutchlow focuses his practice on medical malpractice, product liability and serious personal injury cases. He has secured numerous multimilliondollar jury verdicts and settlements, including an $18 million verdict for paralysis following a chemotherapy administration error and a $9.6 million settlement for cerebral palsy. Zaslow prides himself on “fastidious” case preparation in his handling of complex cases, including prenatal screening, birth injury, and the delay in the diagnosis of cancer. In 2014, Zaslow earned three of New Jersey’s top 20 plaintiff recoveries. In 2015, Zaslow represented the survivors of Tracy Morgan’s friend James McNair, who was the only person killed in the NJ Turnpike crash that severely injured Morgan. The recovery Mr. Zaslow obtained for his clients in that case received national media attention. The firm enjoys the distinct advantage of being able to combine the broad range of experience and skill sets of each attorney into a legal team that is truly stronger than the sum of its parts. This permits aggressive, focused representation that is consistently successful. “The details make all the difference in these cases” says Zaslow. “And we don’t take shortcuts.” The results speak for themselves. www.bestlawyers.com |

NAMES IN RED INDICATE LAWYERS OF THE YEAR
Finnerty, Canda & Concannon, P.C.
J
ohn Finnerty has practiced Family Law for over 40 years and is certified as a matrimonial law attorney by the Supreme Court of New Jersey. He is the founding member of Finnerty, Canda & Concannon, P.C. and is the architect of several reported decisions that have impacted family law in New Jersey, including the landmark case, Lepis v. Lepis (which enables modification of Property Settlement Agreements that are no longer fair and equitable upon a showing of changed circumstances), Davis v. Davis and Nehra v. Uhlar. Mr. Finnerty was the recipient of the Saul Tischler Award which recognizes a lifetime of contribution to the development of Family Law in New Jersey. He has served on the New Jersey Supreme
Court Family Part Practice Committee for 11 terms and was chairman of that Committee’s Sub-Committee on Parenting and Custody for six years. He is former chairman of the New Jersey State Bar Association Family Law Section, serves as a frequent lecturer for the New Jersey Institute of Legal Education, and is a senior editor for the New Jersey Family Lawyer. Of his firm’s philosophy, he says: “We are psychologically sophisticated and compassionate, but we mince no words. We tell our clients what we think in view of the facts they present, the law, and our sense of what the provable truth may be. After helping clients define their objectives, we chart a course with them, and are tireless, but sensible, advocates on their behalf.”
