\nAttorney Satin is one of the few attorneys in Massachusetts to obtain an award of punitive damages in a medical malpractice case and has also convinced jurors that a healthcare provider’s conduct constituted “gross negligence.” In 2006, he obtained an $8.4 million judgment after a jury trial against a member of the clergy who sexually molested a female congregant.

Meyer, Jr. is widely recognized as one of Boston’s top lawyers and an innovator in medical malpractice and personal injury law. Meyer has consistently achieved record-setting verdicts and settlements, including one of the largest personal injury awards in Massachusetts' history — $30 million including interest.
\nHe is the founder of Boston-based Lubin & Meyer PC, a firm known for taking on such high-profile cases as one involving shock treatment at the Judge Rotenberg Center in Canton, MA. The trial prompted an investigation by an FDA advisory panel on whether to ban the aversion shock therapy, and a host of media coverage including a CBS News Investigative Report. His firm is a perennial powerhouse — from June 2013 to June 2014, the firm had the three largest verdicts within the last year — a $24.4 million jury verdict for negligent care of a newborn, an $11 million verdict for failure to diagnose lung cancer, and a $4.8 million verdict for undiagnosed cardiomyopathy leading to death. In addition the firm obtained 25 of the largest settlements of $1 million or more in 2013, and 24 of the largest settlements in 2012.
\nHis extraordinary professional accomplishments and compelling influence on the field of medical malpractice won him the distinction of being named one of the most influential lawyers in the state by Massachusetts Lawyers Weekly.
\nMeyer is regularly called on to speak both to lawyers and medical professionals about the advances of medical malpractice and personal injury law. For more than two decades, Meyer has chaired and lectured at continuing legal education seminars for the American Association of Justice, the Massachusetts Bar Association, Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education, and the Massachusetts Academy of Trial Attorneys. He has been a lecturer at Boston University Law School, Harvard School of Public Health, and Suffolk University Law School.
\nMeyer’s successes in winning compensation for victims of medical malpractice and personal injury have been highlighted in articles in The Boston Globe, The Boston Herald, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times and The Wall Street Journal.
\nHe has served on the National Advisory Board of the National Center for Patients' Rights and on the Action Subcommittee on Patients' Rights of the Massachusetts Bar Association, which protects the rights of victims of personal injury and medical malpractice.

Michael B. Bogdanow is a Principal and Director of Meehan, Boyle, Black & Bogdanow, P.C., and oversees all of its appellate litigation. He has handled numerous appeals on a wide range of issues. Attorney Bogdanow successfully handled the appeal of a $63 million verdict on behalf of his firm's clients, a young girl who was given over the counter Children’s Motrin® to treat a mild fever (and her parents, who were also plaintiffs in the case). She developed the side-effects Stevens-Johnson Syndrome (SJS) and Toxic Epidermal Necrolysis (TEN) resulting in life-altering injuries including the loss of 90% of her skin, blindness and significant respiratory damage. At the time of ingestion, the label did not identify early symptoms of TEN as it does today. Johnson & Johnson and its subsidiary McNeil-PPC, Inc. appealed, and the judgment was upheld by the Supreme Judicial Court of Massachusetts in Reckis v. Johnson & Johnson, 471 Mass. 272 (2015).
Michael Bogdanow also handled the appeal in Commerce Insurance Co. v. Ultimate Livery Service, Inc., 452 Mass. 639 (2008), which established the principle that if a transportation service does not take reasonable steps to help avoid harm caused by its inebriated passengers, the company can be held liable. An intoxicated passenger had been drinking with his friends in a \"party limo\" for several hours and immediately drove after being dropped off near his car. Minutes later, his erratic driving killed an off-duty Boston police officer. The Supreme Judicial Court held that when a limousine service allows its passengers to become intoxicated, it has a duty of care to take reasonable steps to transport them to a place of safety, rather than simply dropping them off where they were picked up, particularly if it is foreseeable that they may then drive.
Michael Bogdanow follows two professional passions in life: law and art. He maintains a diverse practice at Meehan, Boyle, Black & Bogdanow, and also creates paintings and sculptures in his Cambridge studio. While the two enterprises might seem contradictory – the rationality of law vs. the creativity of art – to Bogdanow, they occupy a common ground.
“Certainly art draws from the creative, nonverbal, aesthetic and spiritual part of the brain,” notes Bogdanow. “And law is more analytical, more verbal, more social and more direct. But there still is overlap. As an attorney I often find myself tapping into my skills as an artist. I try to view each case individually and to be as creative as possible in addressing the client’s needs.”
Bogdanow is also a prodigious writer. In 2018, he wrote Massachusetts Personal Injury Litigation, published by Matthew Bender. In 1993, he authored the legal treatise, “Massachusetts Tort Damages,” and in 1999 he wrote the second edition of the treatise, published by Lexis Law Publishing. He updates each of these treatises annually. He has also contributed to many other books, and has published numerous articles on tort and insurance law.
A native of Houston, Bogdanow has practiced law in Boston since his graduation from Harvard Law School in 1984. Like others at the firm, Bogdanow manages to make time to participate in bar activities. He has served as Chairperson of the Joint Bar Committee on Judicial Appointments, and Co-Chair of the Boston Bar Association Litigation Section and Co-Chair of its Tort Committee. He has also served as President of the Massachusetts chapter of the Federal Bar Association.

Connolly, Partner and Co-Chair of Rubin and Rudman’s Litigation Department and a member of Rubin and Rudman’s Executive Committee, is a seasoned litigator with extensive civil and criminal trial experience. Across federal, state, and administrative courts and agencies, Michael has tried numerous cases involving complex securities, commercial and real estate litigation. He has represented clients in shareholder litigation, securities fraud, management disputes, business breakups, defamation actions, trade secret litigation, class actions, professional malpractice claims, fiduciary duty disputes, and zoning, land use, and other real estate related matters.
For many longstanding clients, Michael serves as a trusted advisor. He routinely advises corporate executives, investors, entrepreneurs, government officials and agencies with respect to a wide range of business and legal issues including executive risk management, board disputes, internal investigations, and disputes with shareholders, government entities, and third parties. He has represented clients in the high tech, energy, real estate, telecommunications, software, manufacturing, financial services (including hedge fund), insurance, investment banking and banking industries as well as not-for-profit entities, government agencies and municipalities.
Michael has practiced before state and federal courts in Massachusetts, New York, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Hampshire, Maine, Texas, and California. Michael has also practiced before the American Arbitration Association; the International Centre for Dispute Resolution; the Securities and Exchange Commission; the Massachusetts and Rhode Island Secretary of States’ offices; and the Massachusetts Gaming Commission.
Additionally, Michael is a frequent lecturer and panelist with Massachusetts Continuing Legal Education and has conducted seminars on business and securities litigation, trial practice, deposition practice, expert witnesses and the settlement process. He has also been involved with the Boston Bar Association Court Reform Task Force which, in 1991, studied the state court system, formulated a plan to reform the court system, and prepared the legislation which was then enacted as the Massachusetts court reform law.
After law school, Michael served as a law clerk from 1987 to 1988 and as chief law clerk to the justices of the Massachusetts Superior Court from 1988 to 1989.

\nClient Reviews
\n“Mr. Fitch represented our company in a complex international arbitration case involving the unlawful termination of a license agreement by a listed USA corporation. This settled and included a multi-million dollar payment to us. Jonathan Fitch initially comes across as a quiet and considered individual. He listens, absorbs detail and opinions, and then makes convincing recommendations and decisions that get right to the heart of the issues. In Jonathan Fitch, I saw all the key qualities we needed in one person without the other difficulties. For this arbitration Jonathan Fitch came up against top arbitration lawyers, this was a hard fought issue on both sides involving very material sums of money. Jonathan not only held his own, he walked all over the opposition. The result shows simply how good he is.”
\n“My wife and I bought an expensive apartment in Cambridge, MA. In a week we faced an eviction letter due to the elaborate fraud scheme mastered by developers, lawyers and realtors, who left us empty-handed. Because of the enormous complexity we could not find an adequate legal help for a month... at last we were referenced to Atty. Jonathan W. Fitch of Sally & Fitch LLP in Boston. Indeed, it became our final stop. He won for us two jury trials at the Middlesex Superior Court, and obtained verdicts against all four parties we sued: fraud, intentional misrepresentation, malpractice, etc; legal fees and doubled damages. In sum, our intractable case was cured thanks to Mr. Fitch's unparalleled integrity and professionalism. I would strongly recommend his service to anyone in a serious legal trouble, as ours, and I have no doubts and second thoughts in doing so.”
\n“This was an employment contract dispute. Mr. Fitch helped me get a resolution quickly and cost effectively. He was always there when I needed him.”
\n“Jonathan Fitch provided excellent advice and was able to resolve successfully on two separate settlements of a lawsuit and international arbitration surrounding issues related to a product liability issue I was having difficulty with. He and his team were always there to provide counsel and advice as to how to resolve the issue at hand. It was a very trying experience, but I always felt I was in good hands and their quick action and knowledge of the law gave me every confidence I had chosen the right firm. I worked with Jonathan over a long period of time and always was confident my interests were being met and given the highest priority. I would not hesitate to call on him again.”
