Stewart M. Casper

I first met Attorney Stewart Casper five and a half years ago, a few months after I had been injured. I was unable to walk and needed constant care. I was unable to work. My business had ground to a halt. I was bewildered by the sudden and profound change in my circumstances, and I was very frightened. It had become clear that my injury was not healing and would have permanent consequences. Attorney Casper and his firm Casper & de Toledo steered me through the details of my story with the most interesting questions. I was aware that he listened intently to my answers. I remember most of all, he was very respectful. The feelings of helplessness and personal vulnerability that result from a sudden injury are intense and overwhelming; so to encounter respect at that moment is especially reassuring. He explained with clarity the law as it pertains to a case like mine, and he agreed to represent me. It was as if I had been tumbling down the side of a cliff, and a hand reached out and pulled me onto a ledge. During the following four and half years, I underwent multiple surgeries and courses of treatment-- none of which was straightforward, and all of which affected the course of my case. Attorney Casper steadily guided me through the Byzantine maze of personal injury law, endless conferences, meetings, negotiations and reports. When I had a question or needed reassurance, he or one of his staff responded within a day.

Three years ago, our daughter Reiko was involved in a serious car accident, and experienced a severe subdural hematoma requiring more than a year of intensive supports and rehab. It was a horrendous experience for our family. Throughout the experience, Stewart Casper and his team at Casper & de Toledo were by our sides--not just for the legal support, but also for medical and personal supports. Stewart gave us the ability to focus on our daughter’s TBI needs while he handled the complex and necessary legal aspects. As a result, Reiko has made remarkable progress, and Stewart’s efforts have given her the opportunity to continue her recovery and regain important aspects of her life. Reiko is living successfully independently, is loving her new apartment and friends, is moving smoothly through her program to complete her BA, has a "boyfriend," and is having quality sibling time with her brother. She's got a neurologist and other medical supports, and she's finishing up a brief stint with a counselor to "talk through" some questions. All very good. Three years later, we still marvel at Reiko's remarkable recovery from her life altering accident, and will be forever grateful for the assistance we got from our personal and professional supports network. And Stewart Casper had a prominent and much appreciated place in that support network. We would recommend him highly and without reservation.

I write this endorsement on behalf of Stewart Casper with great enthusiasm. I had the privilege of having Stewart represent me this past year. He was receptive, knowledgeable and professional at all times. From the start, I could tell he always put me first. Stewart was quick to respond to any questions I had and always kept me informed with the process. His staff was receptive as well, and I always had a response to a call or email within hours. As a medical professional, it is clear that he understands the perspective of a client and as a lawyer. He understood medical laws and had clear guidance that took this information into context. He had a wide array of knowledge and it was clear that he had much more experience than the opposing lawyers. He did not hesitate to guide me, and each decision he helped me with clearly worked in my favor. Again, I cannot express with words how much Stewart helped me, and I highly recommend him to anyone with a personal injury.

Attorney Casper is unlike any attorney I have ever met. In addition to his expert knowledge of the law and legal procedure, his support and encouragement are what astounded me most. For four years, he helped me through a very difficult and emotional case with all of the professionalism I would have expected, and all of the compassion that I needed. I was young and afraid to go through the legal process, but Attorney Casper made it easier by always being there for me, treating me as if I was his own daughter. It is impossible for me to thank him enough for caring about me so much.

Stewart Casper is an extraordinary trial lawyer because he is passionate about his clients, has great integrity, and is extremely knowledgeable about the law. Throughout the many years of representing me, he guided me through the pretrial and trial process - doing excellent investigative work, developing the legal theories on a complex issue, conducting a lengthy trial against a formidable big defense firm, and winning a major jury trial. At all times, he was completely devoted to my case; he was well prepared, analytical, and highly regarded by the judge and his adversaries. On a personal level, he gave me the courage to pursue my rights and demonstrated the experience and professionalism required to obtain a positive outcome for my case.

My mother suffered a traumatic brain injury when she fell down an unlit flight of stairs at my sister's residence. Because the case involved a family member, the lawsuit was a bit complicated and sensitive. Although the jury found my mother 40-percent negligent, we were still able to secure a $4.2 million judgment and walk away with $2.5 million. From day one, Stewart Casper was tenacious about the lawsuit and never doubted for a minute that we wouldn't win. He kept me up to date and very informed over the course of collecting information about the case, despite the fact that I live thousands of miles away in Texas. His numerous exhibits were first class all the way - large, colorful, accurate, and VERY effective. I consider him to be a top-notch litigator in the courtroom. I was so impressed by his ability to discredit almost all of the defense's witnesses. In my book, he was a genius!! There's no doubt in my mind that we won the case based on his amazing ability to think on his feet and litigate from the heart. He truly believed in our case and I will be forever indebted to him.

I gladly share a portion of a note that I sent to Attorney Casper upon successful resolution of legal actions involving my late brother's estate. The note read, in part, "...I admire your tenacity, thoroughness, strategic approach, and sense of fairness. You have a well-deserved reputation based on these qualities...."
