Friday, November 23, 2001 10:59 AM Regulations re: Public Law 107-42 Dear Sir/Madam: I am a solo practitioner in New York City that specializes in personal injury litigation. In order to ensure that the victims of the 9/11 tragedy and their families receive fair and just compensation,and to the fullest extent consisitent with the statute, I urge the adoption of regulations that will judge each case on an individual basis. I have read with dismay that there is a push to have the victims' damages judged according to a chart or matrix.Having specialized in this area for over 20 years, I know that no 2 cases are alike and that even when claimants suffer the same injury, so many other variables dictate a different result. This is especially so in the case of the victims who perished on 9/11. I am also a proud member of both the New York State Trial Lawyers Association and The Association of Trial Lawyers of America and signed up for their project in which I will be representing claimants pro bono. Please allow me and my fellow volunteer attorneys to render our expertise to the victims of the tragedy so that they receive the just compensation they are due. Thank you.
