He has successfully litigated construction accidents; serious automobile, trucking, and school bus accidents. As a result, he has obtained dozens of multi seven-figure settlements and verdicts on behalf of his clients.

Marc is a past President of the New Jersey Association for Justice (formerly Association of Trial Lawyers of New Jersey), has held every position in the organization and continues to be a member on its Board of Governors. In 2022, Marc Saperstein was the recipient of the New Jersey Association for Justice’s highest award, the Gold Medal for Distinguished Service. In 2024, Marc was awarded the Martindale-Hubbell Award for the Highest Possible Rating in Both Legal Ability and Ethical Standards. Marc is also the Co-Founder and Co-Chair of the Meadowlands seminar, where he lectures on various legal topics, which include trial objections; evidence; product liability; trucking litigation; professional ethics, and other topics.

Marc treats each of his clients with respect and compassion. “My legal style is one of professionalism and honesty,” Marc says. “I always thoroughly prepare for my arguments to earn the respect of the judge and jury.” Some of his most recent notable victories include 20 million dollars for a construction worker injured on the job, 9 million dollars for a young man who fell off of a subway platform and was struck by a train, and other multi-million-dollar recoveries from trucking and product liability cases.

“The most rewarding part of what I do,” says Marc, “comes at the end of a case when a client thanks me for the work done on their behalf. I am then reminded that it is our responsibility as a trial lawyer that we must retain our faith in the civil justice system, and we must guarantee that hope endures amongst our members and those we are pledged to represent.”
