Our Team
Jesse Klaproth
Of Counsel
When a case demands sophisticated legal strategy or crosses multiple jurisdictions, we partner with Jesse Klaproth. A seasoned trial attorney licensed in DC, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and New York, Jesse delivers a distinct and strategic advantage to our team: he has litigated from both sides of the courtroom.
Unique Perspective & Strategic Advantage
Unlike most plaintiff’s attorneys, Jesse dedicated years to defending Fortune 50 corporations, major healthcare systems, and prestigious academic institutions. This experience provides him with exceptional insight into defense tactics—he understands precisely how opponents think and leverages that knowledge to maintain a decisive edge.
Why We Partner With Jesse
Jesse excels in cases that deter other lawyers. Whether handling a Qui Tam whistleblower action, a high-stakes defamation claim, or a catastrophic medical malpractice matter, Jesse possesses the expertise to manage cases from initial filing through trial and appeal.
Jesse has secured millions in verdicts and settlements across an impressive range of practice areas. His recent successes include a $1.5 million defamation verdict, a $1.3 million wrongful death verdict for a newborn, and substantial settlements in civil rights and whistleblower litigation.
