Michael Glass has been litigating personal injury and medical malpractice cases for more than 25 years. He has been involved in many cases resulting in million and multimillion-dollar recoveries. Michael graduated magna cum laude from St. John's University (which he attended on a sports scholarship) with a 3.989 average. He thereafter attended St. John's University School of Law on a full academic scholarship. Michael graduated from St. John's Law School third in his class. During that time, he served as an editor of the St. John's Law Review, the school's law journal, and received the New York State Trial Lawyers' Louis Harolds Award for Excellence in the field of Tort Law. Michael has been a partner with RGG&L since 1988 and concentrates in the prosecution of complex personal injury and medical malpractice cases. He regularly lectures to other lawyers on a variety of personal injury topics for the various New York State Bar Associations. He has also published seminar pieces for the New York State Bar Association on several trial-related subjects. Michael finds trial work the most rewarding and challenging aspect of his practice. He was admitted to the bar in 1982 and is a member of the Suffolk County Bar Association, the New York State Trial Lawyers Association, the American Association for Justice, and the Nassau/Suffolk Trial Lawyers Association. He and his wife Maureen, also a lawyer, have three children. Michael and his son completed a transatlantic crossing sailing a 53-foot ketch.

Client Testimonials

  • "Frankie can complete his education, I can give the girls a start in life and I can live my life with dignity and comfort. We are grateful for all those things, but most of all, for your kindness and caring."
  • "Just wanted to thank you for all you've done and continue to do. I learned a lot watching you perform at trial. I feel satisfied and vindicated."
  • "When nobody believed me, you did. When the other lawyer told my parents to settle, you supported me and convinced them to fight. When we won, I cried. I will never forget you."
  • "Everyone told me it was hopeless. You told me the only thing you could promise me was that I would get my day in Court. You kept your promise. God bless you for what you did for our family."
  • "I don't know what I would have done without you. You will always be in my prayers."
  • "I never saw anyone work as hard as you did for us. When the judge told us he hoped we appreciated what you did, I didn't say anything because I was choked up. I want you to know that we do. When people say that lawyers don't care, I tell them about you. Thank you for everything."
  • "When our daughter died we were devastated. Your kindness, understanding and support helped us through the most difficult time in our lives. For that we are eternally grateful."
