Luis Haquia

I am a trial Attorney with Davis Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. of Teaneck, N.J. A native of Cuba, my family and I moved to West New York, N.J when I was a young boy. I am a graduate of Memorial High School in West New York, New Jersey. I received a BA in criminal justice from Seton Hall University and my law degree from Rutgers Law School. I am admitted to practice before the state courts of New Jersey and New York, as well as the Federal District Courts, New Jersey and Southern and Eastern Districts of New York. I have been a senior trial lawyer for Davis Saperstein & Salomon, P.C. for nine years. My area of concentration is personal injury law and trial law in both New Jersey and New York. Many of my clients originate from Northern New Jersey’s Latino community. I was honored by La Tribuna, the newspaper of the region’s Cuban-American community at a reception by the newspaper’s executives on June 5, 2005 “Man of the Year” for accomplishments and leadership to the Cuban-American community, according to the newspaper, which is based in Union City, Hudson County, New Jersey. My philosophy is simple when it comes to my clients. Its always an honor and privilege for me to be someone’s lawyer, their ‘abogado,’ and I give them the best representation our firm has to offer. I spent most of my life in Hudson County and Essex County. I know the people from those counties, including the Spanish speaking clients which is the reason why I understand the how juries in Hudson and Essex Counties think. Most recently I won a case against New York’s MTA proving negligence on the part of a subway conductor which resulted in a man losing both of his legs. On a personal note, I enjoy sports, both as a spectator and athlete. I enjoy running, weight training, reading and most importantly, I enjoy practicing law.
