In 1967, Stanley Sanders began specializing in personal injury law. Forty years later, Sanders, Sanders, Block, Woycik, Viener & Grossman, P.C. and Sanders, Viener Grossman, LLP are both successful and prominent New York law firms - consistently achieving considerable settlements and recoveries for accident victims and those who suffered from corporate greed regarding the improper production and marketing of pharmaceuticals and medical devices.
Our clients include people injured as a result of automobile accidents, construction accidents, lead poisoning, police brutality, nursing home abuse, workplace and general negligence, product liability, medical malpractice; and those needing help with social security and workers' compensation matters. The firm is also equipped to handle defense matters, criminal, real estate, corporate, commercial litigation, matrimonial law and immigration law.
In 2003, Marc Grossman joined the firm as a Senior Partner. Mr. Grossman was a partner at the law firm of Mergel, Tubman & Grossman prior to joining the firm, bringing with him years of experience and success in both personal injury and commercial litigation. He has a loyal client base because he shared in Mr. Sanders’ value system of putting the clients ahead of profits. Mr. Grossman believes that lawyers have a duty to serve the community and to protect those in need. Because of his pursuit of excellence in the field, Mr. Grossman was recently named one of the top 100 trial lawyers in New York State.
In addition to Mr. Grossman becoming a partner in 2003, Stanley and Phyllis Sanders made their son-in law Joseph Viener, their daughter Meryl Sanders Viener and son Douglas partners in the firm. Collectively, the next generation of Sanders in conjunction with Mr. Viener and Mr. Grossman are in place to ensure that the firm will continue to grow and prosper for years to come.
Together with Stanley Sanders, Marc Grossman saw the need for a separate firm to take on the huge drug companies that produced poor and ineffective products. Through the leadership of Marc Grossman and Meryl Sanders Viener, Sanders Viener Grossman, LLP formed to meet that goal in 2004. The firm successfully represented claimants against Merck for that company’s improper conduct regarding the Vioxx drug. Additionally, the firm handles litigation against Pfizer and Medtronic for other defective drugs and products. Because of the firm’s excellent work, Marc Grossman was able to become a member of the steering committee for the Avandia litigation against Glaxo SmithKline Beecham.
Collectively, the Sanders Firm entities will continue to grow and reach even greater heights in the future. Since we began our specialty, the area of personal injury law has grown increasingly complex. Laws have changed. Medical care is different. Regulations have been revised.
Through it all, we have maintained our reputation as leaders in our field by: (1) building a foundation of legal talent with the sharpest skills and the broadest experience; (2)creating a vast network of resources to support every case including researchers, engineers, medical experts, and sophisticated technologies; (3) providing each client with an extensive level of personal care and diligence.
As our firm has grown in size and success, we continue to maintain the essence of the mission we undertook when we began our highly specialized practice - to provide the highest and most comprehensive quality of legal guidance to those who have been injured in accidents through acts of negligence.
