He has also been recognized on the Best Lawyers list for 14 consecutive years.
Under Mr. Wigdor’s leadership, Wigdor LLP has become well known for handling some of the most closely watched and discussed cases involving sexual harassment, sexual assault and employment discrimination worldwide. The Firm’s attorneys are frequently seen zealously advocating for their clients or being quoted as legal experts in leading local, national and international news media. Due to the Firm’s well-respected stature within the legal community, the attorneys at Wigdor LLP possess a rare negotiating power that is unseen by most boutique plaintiffs’ firms. As a result, the Firm is able to settle the vast majority of its cases confidentially before a complaint is ever filed. These settlements total over $1 Billion.
The hallmark of our practice, and our promise to you, quite simply is: Unparalleled dedication, commitment and integrity in all of our work.
