Firm Info
Weisman, Goldberg & Weisman Co., L.P.A. has been almost
exclusively devoted to protecting the right of individuals for
nearly 40 years. The firm specializes in litigation dealing with
medical malpractice, product liability, security fraud and
automobile liability. In the past decade, the firm has also
directed considerable resources to class action litigation.
Founded in 1963 by Fred Weisman,
the firm is comprised of 10 lawyers and a staff of 16, including
three full-time nurses. The firm was one of the early pioneers
in medical malpractice litigation. This naturally led into the
area of defective medical devices which continues as a main part
of its practice.
The firm's high level of
expertise and record of successful client representation has
resulted in three of its lawyers being recognized in The Best
Lawyers in America, a nationally recognized publication in
its 9th Edition.
During its existence, Weisman,
Kennedy & Berris has represented over 25,000 individuals
before Federal and State courts throughout the United States. In
addition to its local representation of individual clients, the
1990's have seen the emergence of the firm as a leader in the
national mass tort arena; taking leadership roles in the Breast
Implant Litigation; the Telectronics Pacemaker cases and the
Diet Drug Class Action. This class action experience provided
the firm lawyers with an entrée into securities and insurance
fraud litigation.
Outside its legal efforts,
members of the firm have been extensively involved in assisting
the Greater Cleveland community by actively participating as
leaders in various religious, civic and non-profit
organizations. Weisman, Kennedy & Berris is most proud of
its total firm commitment to the welfare-to-work movement. Three
lawyers sit on the Board of Cleveland Works and the entire staff
has led the way in organizing, working and financially
supporting four fund raisers including a city-wide
"One-Mile Run". Such involvement is consistent with
the commitment of Weisman, Kennedy & Berris to the
principles of justice and the protection of individual rights.
