Prior to joining Merson Law, Mr. Rutsky worked at midtown Manhattan firm Trief & Olk for fifteen years, where he rose from associate to partner. There, Mr. Rutsky handled day-to-day management of the majority of the firm’s complex personal injury cases, including medical malpractice, product liability, labor law, workplace accidents, and catastrophic auto collision cases.

The litigation process is scary enough for most people without the additional stress of having an attorney who treats their clients as a nuisance or fails to return calls in a timely manner. My main goal is to ensure that the client understands what is happening and is happy with it. If either of those elements are not satisfied, I work tirelessly to ensure that they are.”
