Peter Saghir has spent his legal career with Gair Gair Conason fighting for justice for those who have been killed or seriously injured through the fault of others. Peter has honed his trial skills under the tutelage of the firm’s senior partners and has been a fierce advocate for his clients. He has achieved numerous multi-million dollar settlements and verdicts and has been recognized as a Super Lawyer in the New York Metro area since 2016. In addition, as a result of Peter’s success as a trial attorney, he has been asked to lecture and teach by various organizations, including the New York State Trial Lawyers’ Association, the National Institute of Trial Advocacy, Cardozo Law School and Hofstra University.
Peter describes his view of the job as follows: “I am humbled to be able to represent people who come to me at what is often the most difficult time in their lives. It is both an honor and a tremendous responsibility to meet them at their point of need and secure full and fair compensation for them because of their injuries.”
