Episode 02 | Town Law Talk with Guest Lawyer Jordan Strokovsky, Founder of Strokovsky LLC
Strokovsky LLC founder, Jordan Strokovsky, is a trial lawyer serving the catastrophically injured in a diverse range of cases including medical malpractice, birth injury, truck accidents, fires, explosions, plane crashes, premises liability, product liability, workplace injuries, toxic torts, civil rights, car accidents and sexual assault.
His hard work ethic, integrity and compassion earns him the trust of his clients and respect of his opponents. These attributes have also helped him obtain significant verdicts and settlements. For good reason, many lawyers refer or seek to co-counsel their serious injury and wrongful death cases with Jordan.
Most recently, Jordan obtained one of the largest medical malpractice awards in Pennsylvania history—a $30,321,145.60 recovery against Temple University Hospital where his client’s leg was amputated. For years, the hospital denied any wrongdoing, and they threatened to tie the case up in appeals if his client did not accept their offer of $3,000,000.
While other attorneys may have implored their client to take the money to avoid going to trial against a large corporation, Jordan tirelessly prepared for court to secure a just outcome for his client.
His thorough investigation and preparation leading up to trial resulted in the hospital admitting fault (which virtually never happens in medical malpractice cases). After a hard-fought trial, the jury awarded full justice to Jordan’s client for approximately $25.9M ($6M for future medical costs and $20M for pain and suffering).
Episode 01 | Town Law Talk with Guest Attorney Tom Bosworth of The Law Offices of Thomas Bosworth
At age 33, Tom Bosworth became the youngest lawyer in the history of Pennsylvania to obtain a jury verdict in excess of $10 million for a living client as lead counsel (the total verdict being over $19 million). Three months prior to that, after two weeks as lead counsel at trial, Bosworth secured a $7 million settlement on behalf of a mother whose mentally disabled adult son wrongfully died in a group home. Bosworth also obtained multiple non-monetary terms in this settlement that were only agreed to by the defendant after two weeks of trial. In the past 5 years, Bosworth has been counsel on various additional jury trials and settlements totaling over $80 million. These cases included ones for medical malpractice, product liability, and wrongful death.
Recently, Bosworth was designated by the independent attorney group Super Lawyers as a Rising Star in Pennsylvania, a designation reserved for the top 2.5 percent of attorneys in the state who are 40 or younger or practicing 10 years or less. Bosworth attended Temple University Beasley School of Law from where he graduated in 2016 with magna cum laude and Order of the Coif distinction. During law school, Bosworth participated as a member of Temple’s nationally ranked Trial Team and as a Research Editor of the Temple Law Review.
