Samuel Meirowitz

Samuel Meirowitz, an accomplished trial lawyer and relentless advocate for his clients. Mr. Meirowitz obtained what is believed to be the first multi-million-dollar asbestos verdict seen in more than two decades in a New York federal court. Mr. Meirowitz has appeared on FOX News LIVE on multiple occasions to comment on legal issues around the nation. Mr. Meirowitz takes pride in being one who fights for his clients both in and out of the courtroom. When he isn’t trying cases, Sam has organized and conducted union meetings regarding occupational safety hazards faced by workers and given seminars in rural parts of Canada to raise residents’ awareness of the profound dangers of asbestos (a particularly serious threat in that nation’s hinterlands). Mr. Meirowitz also supports a range of charities: for example, he has participated in the Miles for Mesothelioma run-walk event in South Florida to show solidarity with victims of that horrific, asbestos-caused cancer and to help fund research aimed at finding more effective treatment or, ideally, a cure. Prior to co-founding Meirowitz & Wasserberg, Mr. Meirowitz was a senior trial lawyer at a well known national plaintiff’s firm. Previously, he served the State of New York for four years as a prosecutor in the Bronx District Attorney’s office. During his time there, Mr. Meirowitz handled thousands of cases earning an impressive record of success in trial verdicts. During that period, Mr. Meirowitz also taught law classes as an adjunct professor at City University of New York (Queens) and Interboro Institute. Mr. Meirowitz is admitted to practice law in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida. He is also admitted to practice before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit as well as the U.S. District Court in the Southern and Eastern Districts of NY.
