Ronald Goldman is an Attorney of Counsel for Wisner Baum. Over his 50-year career, he has litigated hundreds of wrongful death and personal injury cases, involving commercial transportation and drug product liability, at both the trial and appellate levels. An experienced pilot, Goldman has worked on all of Wisner Baum’s general aviation and airline disaster cases since joining the firm in 2003.. Goldman brings a formidable breadth and depth of legal experience to his work. He is a board certified Civil Trial Advocate and Civil Pretrial Practice Advocate, certified by the National Board of Trial Advocacy. He is a former Judge Pro Tem, arbitrator, mediator, and adjunct professor of law at the Pepperdine University School of Law. He created the school’s aviation accident law course; for 21 years he taught courses in torts, aviation, and legal writing and analysis. His understanding of piloting and knowledge of aviation law make him a much sought out expert for major media, who have featured him in many TV, radio, and newspaper stories.. In the 1960’s, Goldman was involved in ground-breaking pharmaceutical litigation against the maker of a cholesterol-lowering drug, MER/29 (triparanol), that was estimated to have injured more than 5,000 individuals. The case helped pave the way for the mass tortdrug product liability litigation that takes place today. Goldman was also the lead negotiator in one of Wisner Baum’s most significant aviation litigation achievements. As part of the settlement in the January 8, 2003 Air Midwest Flight 5481 crash in Charlotte, NC, he won the agreement of the airline and maintenance company, in an organized ceremony, to deliver an unprecedented official public apology to the families for the crash..

Many attorneys claim to be passionate about helping their clients, but Cara is more than just talk. In fact, she is known among her clients and colleagues for her steadfast commitment to each case she takes on, for winning her clients’ trust, and for her comprehensive approach to legal counsel.. One client praised Cara’s work in a testimonial to the firm, writing:On behalf of our entire family, we would like to express our deepest gratitude for all that your firm did for us during a very difficult process… We are extremely grateful to Cara Luther who literally held our hand through the legal process and not only kept us updated, but helped us to understand throughout the entire evolution. She was very responsive to all questions and provided support to each of us that will never be forgotten. She took the time to listen and provided not only her legal expertise but her compassion for what we were all going through. She knew how difficult losing Patricia was for all of us and she did not force us to relive any details of her death unless absolutely necessary. Thank you just doesn’t seem enough. But we thank her from the bottom of our hearts for her never ending professional and emotional support.Sincerely,J.A. and family.

Education and Career HistoryIn 1968, Cara earned a bachelor’s degree in biology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. She focused her undergraduate studies primarily on medical technology, which armed her with the skills she needed to work in medical research after graduation. In this field, she familiarized herself with medical documents, records, and terminology, all of which proved critical to her cases at Wisner Baum.. Cara eventually pivoted to work in insurance—first as a sales representative, then as a claims adjuster. This time of her career would also prove beneficial to her clients at Wisner Baum, as she now knows how the defense thinks and operates. As a result, she can communicate more effectively with the defense and their insurance adjusters.. After working in the medical and insurance fields, she was inspired to pivot once again—this time to practice law. She attended the University of Maryland Francis King Carey School of Law, graduating with her J.D. in 1986. She has obtained numerous court admissions in the time since:• Pennsylvania• District of Columbia• The District of Columbia Court of Appeals• Maryland• U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia• U.S. District Court for the District of Maryland• U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania• U.S. Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit• U.S. Court of Appeals, Third Circuit• U.S. District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania• U.S. District Court for the Middle District of Pennsylvania• U.S. District Court, Northern District of Ohio.
