Over their combined 38 years of litigation and trial experience, attorneys Weinberg and Garber have developed professional specialties:

Plaintiff Representation in Complex Litigation

During his years at Robinson Donovan, Paul Weinberg consistently delivered substantial recoveries for plaintiff clients.

In the form of jury verdicts or settlements, as lead or co-counsel, Paul's representation yielded results totaling over $19.5 million in six cases alone. In more than ten other cases, mostly suits for medical malpractice, client recovery was made between $500,000 and $1,000,000 each.

John Garber joined Paul in focusing on plaintiff representation, while at Robinson Donovan and now at W&G. On behalf of plaintiff clients, W&G currently prosecutes plaintiffs' cases, with an emphasis on wrongful death claims, in state and federal courts, in Massachusetts and around the country.

Buz Eisenberg is also with the firm on an "Of Counsel" basis. As a litigator with the Greenfield firm Esser, Singer, Eisenberg & Wainstein over the course of 20 years, Buz handled a variety of types of civil matters including cases yielding six and seven figure recoveries.

Commercial Litigation

Business disputes range over many fields and topics: insurance, indemnity, partnership, corporate governance, intellectual propery, anti-trust, and unfair trade practices. Paul and John have wide experience representing different kinds of businesses in all manner of disputes. Weinberg & Garber maintains an ongoing local presence in commercial litigation, providing first-rate representation to businesses.

Appellate Practice

John has always maintained a focus on appellate work, beginning as an associate in Chicago, where he researched and wrote several briefs for cases before the Illinois appellate courts and the federal Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals. More recently, he authored and supervised over 20 appeals during his tenure at Robinson Donovan, to the appellate courts of Massachusetts and the federal First Circuit Court of Appeals. Appeal topics have included commercial disputes, landlord/tenant, evidence, insurance, probate, tax abatement, and many others.

Insurance Coverage

For over 20 years, Paul Weinberg has handled a wide variety of property damage claims, representing first party claimants and defending insurance companies on coverage issues, as well as providing third party defense of such claims. In many cases, Paul defended contractors and architects under general and professional liability policies. He has also represented construction contractors and subcontractors in contract bid disputes. Paul has developed a reputation as one of the preeminent insurance coverage specialists in Massachusetts. John Garber gained extensive experience with construction litigation and professional liability defense during his six years at Robinson Donovan. W&G continues to represent a number of regional mutual insurance companies, providing advice and representation on coverage questions. The firm frequently consults for other attorneys, especially those in the plaintiff's bar, to analyze coverage issues.
