I love NFL football (NY Giants fan for life) and golf but....alas no better than a 100 round kind of guy...prefer the 19th hole over the other 18 holes just suffered. This is a painful admission because I was born in Glasgow, Scotland....the home of golf. I should be good at this game, right? In any event - would you want your lawyer to be thinking about your legal matters or playing golf all the time?

Getting caught in an accident can be one of the most traumatizing moments of our lives. We’re lucky when we can walk away from an accident with no injuries or only minor scrapes and bruises. But many accidents involve far more serious injuries, and, unfortunately, these happen far too often. When an accident is due to the actions of a negligent party, it would be unfair to ask you, the victim, to take on the responsibility of paying the medical costs of your recovery. In order to protect your rights and get fair treatment, it is recommended that you hire a personal injury lawyer to represent your needs. With the recovery period being full of all new stressors, an attorney can help to take care of the legal stuff and guide you through what to expect from a lawsuit. If you have been injured near White Plains, New York, or New City, New York, the legal team at Greenspan & Greenspan, P.C., has decades of experience helping clients with cases just like yours, so you know you can trust us to look out for your best interests.

He has also been named a lifetime member of “Elite Lawyers in America,” “The Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum,” and “Top Trial Lawyers in America.”  He is a Fellow in the prestigious Litigation Counsel of America, and a member of the venerable American Bar Association Foundation.. Jeff’s versatility with a wide array of subject matters has led to his handling of many high profile, difficult cases. Among other matters, Jeff successfully led the defense in federal court of a boat-builder wrongfully implicated in the “Ethan Allen” tragedy on Lake George in which twenty persons perished, winning summary judgment on the client’s behalf; prosecuted a $4.5 million jury verdict in Columbia County against Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI); argued before the New Jersey Supreme Court the landmark consumer fraud class action, Lee v. Basic Research, which resulted in a unanimous, 9-0 opinion overturning the lower courts’ decisions denying class certification; and argued before the Massachusetts’ Supreme Judicial Court the precedent setting case of Tyler v. Michaels which declared unlawful the collection of personal identifying information in connection with retail credit card transactions. Jeff’s reputation for excellent results and dogged preparation, make him a formidable adversary, regardless of which side of the aisle any particular dispute may place him.. Jeff is no stranger to the Courtroom, and has successfully tried to verdict a diverse number of matters, including securing a defense verdict for Madison Square Garden and Amtrak in a federal jury trial in the Eastern District of New York; winning a multi-million dollar jury award in a state court breach of contract action in White Plains; prevailing in a nine month real estate fraud arbitration in New York City in which he recovered a multi-million dollar judgment; and securing on the eve of jury selection tens of millions of dollars for clients with catastrophic losses.. Jeff’s experience in the sports, media and entertainment industries has also allowed for his successful handling of a variety of matters including claims of copyright infringement, trademark infringement, breach of television Executive Production Agreements, royalty disputes, and artist-management conflicts. Jeff has advised television broadcast journalists, senior media executives and executive producers on a wide range of issues concerning non-competes, first amendment rights, and compensation and severance disputes.. Jeff led the successful prosecution of the wrongful death action of Baltimore Orioles’ pitcher Steve Bechler, helped extricate former light heavyweight World Champion boxer Reggie Johnson from an onerous promoter’s contract, and counseled the Estate of Tito Puente, the Latin Salsa King, in a misappropriation of name and likeness litigation. Jeff also spearheaded the successful prosecution of the United States Tennis Association’s (USTA) multimillion dollar breach of contract action against a sponsor of the US Open, as well as defended the USTA against a claim of disability discrimination which he successfully had dismissed, and successfully represented Heineken in a breach of contract action arising from a marketing services agreement. Jeff regularly counsels media and entertainment clients in contract negotiations, severance disputes, and intellectual property matters.. Jeff’s skill with complex litigation has also helped the Firm to develop significant experience handling a diverse array of maritime and admiralty matters. Jeff has successfully defended boat builders, marinas, charter vessels, stevedores and other marine interests in both federal and state litigations throughout the Country. Among other successful outcomes, Jeff defended a marine terminal operator in a federal wrongful death action in Portland, Maine; represented a luxury yacht manufacturer in a premises liability action in federal court in New Jersey; defended a Manhattan sight-seeing tour operator against a personal injury claim; and handled a Society of Maritime Arbitrators (SMA) arbitration concerning the scope of a contractual indemnity between a terminal operator and a multinational transport company. The Firm’s experience includes handling claims arising under the Jones Act, the Longshore and Harbor Workers Compensation Act, and the Outer Continental Shelf Lands Act, as well as prosecuting exoneration from and limitation of liability actions.. Despite his legal accomplishments, Jeff is perhaps better known as the older (and wiser) brother of the irreverent radio host and colorful personality Craig Carton, of the “Boomer and Carton” morning show on WFAN, CBS-660AM. As Craig has often remarked, it must’ve been grade inflation at Dartmouth that earned Jeff an “A-” on the psychology paper which Craig resubmitted and received a more modest “B” on at Syracuse.. Jeff is a cum laude graduate of Dartmouth College, a graduate of Columbia Law School and began his career as a litigator at Cravath Swaine & Moore.  He lives in West Harrison, New York, with his wife Lauren, a pediatrician, and their two children, both of whom are currently attending college.
