Awarded As Part of The Largest Sexual Assault Verdict In New York State History
Ranked as one of the top lawyers in New York and the United States
Ranked as one of the top lawyers in New York and the United States, Jordan Merson focuses on cases involving injured children, grappling with issues ranging from birth injuries and medical malpractice to the harrowing aftermath of sexual abuse, showcasing his unwavering commitment to justice for the most vulnerable.
Dubbed the “trial lawyer to the stars,” Merson has also been called the “go-to lawyer nationally in other high-stakes, high-profile cases,” having fearlessly taken on the likes of Jeffrey Epstein, Harvey Weinstein, Bill Cosby, Larry Nassar and many others.
In recent years, he secured the largest personal injury jury verdict in New York County, not once, but twice. Notably, a $28 million verdict for a former New York Giants player in a medical malpractice case not only underscored Merson’s legal prowess but also garnered widespread media attention, a testament to his ability to command both courtroom and public discourse. Â Merson has been referred to as the lawyer “equivalent of Patrick Mahomes in football, Pete Sampras in tennis, or Bill Bradley in basketball and politics.”
Jordan Merson has received a number of prestigious accolades, including:
- 2024: Appointed to trust advisory committee responsible for distributing the $2.7 billion Boy Scouts settlement.
- 2024: Named by Super Lawyers as one of the top 100 lawyers in New York.
- 2024: Recognized as one of the top 200 lawyers in America by Forbes.
- 2019: Finalist for Public Justice’s esteemed “Trial Lawyer of the Year.”
- 2014: Selected for the New York Law Journal’s prestigious “Hall of Fame” for Medical Malpractice Verdicts and Settlements.
- 2014: Included on New York Magazine’s top verdicts list. Notably, Merson achieved the largest single-plaintiff medical malpractice verdict in Westchester County for at least a five-year period, securing an $11.3 million verdict after the defendant that proceeded to trial refused to offer any settlement.
For his clients, Merson has many settlements or secured jury verdicts well in excess of $5 million, including:
- 2018: Beat his own record with a $28 million award from a Westchester jury, marking the largest contested, compensatory jury verdict against an institution in New York State History for a child sexual assault victim.
- 2019: Achieved a $14 million verdict for another child sex abuse victim.
- 2020: Represented a client in another “no pay” medical malpractice case at trial and achieved a jury verdict of more than $6 million.
Merson is a graduate of Fordham Law School and former co-captain of the basketball team, which won the division championship at Madison Square Garden. He received his Bachelor of Science in Communications magna cum laude from Boston University.
