The firm was established by Judge Jacob D. Fuchsberg, who built it around a commitment to civil rights litigation. Reflecting on the shift in how civil rights battles have been fought over time, he stated, "Unlike in the 1960s, when America fought in the streets for its rights, today we are waging the fight in the courthouses." That philosophy has continued to guide the firm's approach to representing people harmed by negligence, medical errors, and civil rights violations. Over the decades, the firm secured what it describes as the first million-dollar verdict in the country, an early marker of the scale of advocacy it pursued on behalf of injured clients. Since then, the firm states it has recovered more than $295 million for the people it has represented, continuing the founder's original mission of using the courts as the venue for pursuing justice for the injured and those whose civil rights have been violated.
