For more than twenty years, Jeffrey S. Glassman has built his career around standing up for injured people and guiding them through some of the most difficult periods of their lives. He believes those who have been hurt deserve a lawyer who is not only skilled and determined, but also genuinely compassionate. In his view, insurance companies too often place resistance ahead of fairness, delaying or denying the compensation and benefits injured individuals need. When that happens, he takes it seriously on a personal level because he understands that his clients are already dealing with pain, financial strain, and emotional stress. That belief is one of the reasons he remains directly involved in nearly every matter that enters his office and personally handles the negotiation of almost every claim. He brings to each case the same sense of care, loyalty, and protection he would want for members of his own family. Every year, he helps resolve hundreds of claims while working to obtain the strongest possible outcome for each client and still giving close attention to that person’s unique concerns. Since launching his practice on Valentine’s Day in 1995, he has shaped a firm known for being forceful, honest, and highly respected throughout both the legal profession and the insurance industry.
Over the years, Jeffrey and his team have represented thousands of clients across a wide range of injury and disability matters. Their work has included car accidents, workers’ compensation claims, construction accidents, bicycle and pedestrian accidents, slip and fall cases, medical malpractice, and nursing home negligence and abuse. The firm also represents clients in Social Security Disability matters, defective drug and medical device litigation, and asbestos and mesothelioma claims brought on a nationwide basis. That breadth of experience reflects both the firm’s depth of knowledge and its long-standing commitment to helping people facing serious harm, loss, and uncertainty.
Jeffrey S. Glassman handles every case with a clear philosophy: an injury claim should not be resolved for anything less than fair and full compensation, and when justice requires it, the case should be pursued as far as necessary. Throughout his career, he has shown that he can achieve substantial recoveries for injured clients while still delivering the kind of individualized service many people fear they will not receive from a larger practice. That combination of results and personal attention has become a defining feature of his firm. When negotiations do not lead to an appropriate resolution, he makes sure the case continues to be aggressively litigated by the firm’s own in-house litigation attorneys rather than sent elsewhere.
Over time, Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers has established itself as a leading force in Boston personal injury law. He takes pride in everything the firm has built and remains thankful for the chance to help so many people at moments when they need trusted guidance the most. His dedication to client service and case results has led to a number of top-rated honors and recognitions, including a 10.0 rating on Justia, a 10.0 rating on Avvo, selection to Super Lawyers, membership in the Million Dollar Advocates Forum, and recognition as a Top 100 Trial Lawyer. Still, some of the praise he values most comes from former clients. Many have described him using “best” when talking about their experience with him as a Boston injury lawyer, emphasizing the confidence they placed in him because of his direct involvement, responsiveness, and successful results. Unlike the distant reputation many attorneys have, he is known for being accessible and for returning calls promptly, often the same day or within twenty-four hours.
Away from the office, Jeffrey S. Glassman has a wide range of interests that reflect his energy and curiosity, including hiking, swimming, chi gong, tai chi, yoga, skiing, traveling, music, tennis, golf, and nature photography. He is also the founder of RainforestMaker, a nonprofit organization devoted to rainforest restoration. Some have described him as a rainmaker by day and a RainforestMaker by night. Through that nonprofit, he developed an initiative for attorneys known as LATTÉ, short for Lawyers Accountable To The Earth. Aware that lawyers consume far more paper than the average office worker, with usage estimated at about 24 trees per lawyer each year, he transitioned his entire office to 100 percent recycled paper and now encourages other firms to do the same. In addition, he serves on the Massachusetts Bar Association Energy and Environmental Task Force, where he helps motivate firms to follow the MBA Green Guidelines, which he helped co-author.
His concern for the environment mirrors the same compassion and mindfulness he brings to the people he represents. He believes that when negligence causes injury, justice should be pursued with purpose and persistence. As the founder of Jeffrey Glassman Injury Lawyers, he works personally to make sure every client receives individual attention along with the most aggressive and effective advocacy the firm can provide.
