Patricia Lynn-Ford
Patricia A. Lynn-Ford is a partner of the firm with over three decades of trial experience in courts across New York State. She has obtained significant recoveries for her clients, due to a well-developed litigation strategy, attention to detail, and thorough preparation. Her dual practice concentration is complex plaintiff personal injury litigation and first party insurance coverage claims on behalf of policyholders who have been denied coverage. She views these practice areas as complementary, as both involve technical expertise, strategically directed discovery, solid knowledge of the law and a high level of attorney competence. She is an effective and relentless advocate, while also providing clients with candid advice, to allow for fully informed decision making.
