At Finz & Finz, P.C., maximizing the financial outcome for our clients isn’t just what we do — it’s the entire mission that drives our firm. In 2025, that relentless commitment produced one of the most decorated years in our four-decade history. Our attorneys secured one of the ten largest verdicts in all of New York State, and was recognized on New York’s list of the Top 100 personal injury and medical malpractice settlements not once, but eleven times.
For the injured New Yorkers and grieving families we represent, these numbers are far more than statistics. Behind every figure is a person whose life was upended by someone else’s negligence — and a legal team that refused to let them be shortchanged.
A $40.3 Million Verdict Among the Largest in the State
The centerpiece of our 2025 results was a $40.3 million verdict, recognized as one of the ten largest verdicts in New York State last year. In a legal landscape where insurance companies and hospital defense teams fight to minimize what victims recover, a result of this magnitude reflects exhaustive preparation, courtroom advocacy, and a willingness to litigate a case before a jury when that is what full justice requires.
It is precisely the kind of outcome that has defined Finz & Finz for more than 40 years — a firm founded by a former New York State Supreme Court Justice and responsible for over $1 billion recovered on behalf of its deserving clients.
11 of New York’s Top 100 Personal Injury & Medical Malpractice Settlements
Beyond courtroom jury verdicts, our litigation team delivered results that included 11 spots of New York’s Top 100 personal injury and medical malpractice settlements for 2025, as compiled by TopVerdict.com. Those ranked results include:
- #15 — $4,000,000
- #23 — $3,000,000
- #34 — $1,900,000
- #52 — $890,000
- #55 — $800,000
- #59 — $750,000 (two separate settlements at this figure)
- #64 — $625,000
- #66 — $575,000
- #67 — $560,000
- #69 — $500,000
- #83 — $250,000
Together, these ranked settlements represent more than $14.6 million recovered for our clients — and they sit alongside the many other resolutions our attorneys reached throughout the year that did not make the statewide list. To have this many results recognized among the very best in a state as large and competitive as New York speaks to the depth of our team and the consistency of our approach.
Why These Results Matter for the Clients We Serve
Rankings and record verdicts are gratifying, but their real value is what they signal to the next person seeking our assistance. When you are recovering from a serious injury, facing mounting medical bills, or mourning the loss of a loved one, you deserve a lawyer who takes your case as seriously as you do. You deserve a firm that insurance companies and defense attorneys already know they cannot bully into a lowball settlement.
Medical malpractice cases, in particular, are among the most difficult and expensive to litigate — which is why so few firms are willing to take them on. Finz & Finz has built its reputation on doing exactly that: pursuing the complex birth injury, failure-to-diagnose, surgical error, and hospital negligence cases that other firms turn away, and pursuing them with everything we have.
That reputation — recognized by Super Lawyers, National Trial Lawyers, Best Lawyers, the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum, and preeminent peer ratings, and respected by judges, defense lawyers, and insurers alike — is what allows us to negotiate from a position of strength and, when necessary, win at trial.
A Powerhouse Firm With a Family Approach
What makes these 2025 results possible is the same thing that has set Finz & Finz apart for generations: we combine the resources and trial power of a top-tier litigation firm with the personal, hands-on attention of a family practice. Every client is treated as an individual, and every case is fought as though it were our own.
If you or a loved one has been seriously injured or harmed by medical negligence in New York, we would be honored to review your case. Contact Finz & Finz, P.C. today for a free, no-obligation consultation and put one of the state’s most decorated personal injury teams to work for you.
