Victoria Wickman Lawyer Reviews & Ratings - New York

Victoria Wickman Bio
I am a native New Yorker born and raised in Brooklyn. Following my parents' example of hard work and dedication, I graduated cum laude from St. John's University in 1998. By the age of 24, I obtained my law degree from St. John's University School of Law in 2001. During law school I was honored with the Dean's List, achieved the position of Internal Director of the Moot Court Honor Society and won writing competitions. While attending law school full time, I was working for a sole practitioner part-time handling all personal injury matters, including medical malpractice. Upon graduation, I was hired by a Park Avenue law firm as an associate practicing personal injury and medical malpractice for three years. From there, I had been associated with one of the most prestigious, most successful personal injury law firms in the State of New York. There, I had the honor of working under the top personal injury trial attorneys and limiting my practice to medical malpractice. While at that firm, I obtained multiple million dollar settlements in cases involving failures to diagnose cancer, properly perform surgical procedures, properly deliver infants, etc. I have earned a reputation for being tough in court while being respected by my adversaries. In 2006 I was asked to co-chair the New York State Trial Lawyer's Young Lawyer Network - a position I hold to this day. In 2006 I joined the American Inns of Court, Kings County - a society established by former Chief Justice Warren Berger that is by invitation only. American Inns of Court (AIC) are designed to improve the skills, professionalism and ethics of the bench and bar. In December 2008, Ilectured other attorneys on the topic of "Training Medical Malpractice Staff" for the New York State Trial Lawyer's Association. By 2008 I became managing attorney of a law firm that limited its practice exclusively to neurological injuries. Shortly thereafter, however, I felt the need to use my talent and knowledge to branch out farther and start my own practice as of January 1, 2009.. My firm, conveniently located in downtown Manhattan across from a major subway hub, handles all types of medical malpractice, personal injury, and traumatic brain injury cases. As a sole practitioner, I am able to dedicate my time to you to give you the personal attention that you deserve. Every call you make will be returned personally by me. I hope that I can be of some assistance to you. Please give me a call for a free consultation.
