Nima Baratzadeh, an associate with Russo & Gould, has substantial litigation experience. He gained invaluable insight into the workings of opposing counsel during his tenure with a high-volume plaintiff's personal injury firm. There, he was responsible for every stage of litigation, from inception to resolution.
Nima started his legal career with the Chicago Public Defender's Homicide Task Force, assisting in the defense of more than a dozen homicide charges, and representing clients in all stages of litigation, from bond hearings to post-trial motions and appeals. Before entering private practice, he served as Senior Litigation Analyst at a private equity firm.
When not at work, Nima enjoys spending time with his family and finding time to squeeze in some basketball.
Congratulations go out to Tashi Vaish who got a unanimous defense verdict on liability earlier today in Supreme Kings on the Salway Nasser v. Tadhbir Singh and Jean R. Joseph case. The plaintiff, who did not know who caused the accident, was a passenger in the insured''s livery vehicle headed to JFK Airport. The co-defendant was also a livery driver and neither driver could be produced for either a deposition or trial.
Russo & Gould Partner Charles ("Chuck") B. Stokes, Esquire has successfully defended a claim for more than $600,000 in compensatory damages brought by the owners of an upscale Burlington County, New Jersey residence. In Walsh v. AmGuard, Plaintiffs filed suit in state court claiming that their homeowner''s carrier had failed to compensate them adequately for damages they allegedly sustained as a result of a 2019 storm. They claimed that high winds tore shingles from their roof, allowing rain to infiltrate much of the building and either damage or destroy walls, floors, doors, windows and other elements of the residence, as well as extensive personal property. They claimed that much of the damage was caused by mold, which they claimed developed during an alleged delay in investigating and adjusting the loss.
