New York Appellate Work Handled by Pollack, Pollack, Isaac & DeCicco, LLP

 
   
AppealsNew York appeals lawyer Brian Isaac has been at the forefront of New York Appellate Practice for almost 20 years, and has been responsible for numerous ground breaking decisions. In Balbuena v. IDR Realty LLC, No. 19 , 6 NY3d 338 [2006], Mr. Isaac successfully argued that undocumented aliens were not precluded from obtaining lost wages for safety violations under N.Y. Lab. Law §§ 240, 241 because there was no preemption by the Immigration Reform and Control Act, 8 U.S.C.S. § 1324a et seq.

More recently, in Soto v. New York City Tr. Auth., 6 NY3d 487 [2006], Mr. Isaac successfully argued that Under C.P.L.R. § 1411, a jury properly found transit authority 25 percent at fault in accident, as plaintiff's conduct in running along railroad tracks, although a substantial factor in causing the accident, was not so egregious or unforeseeable that it had to be deemed a superseding cause of accident that absolved transit authority of liability.

As a New York appeals attorney, Mr. Isaac has also secured large verdicts at the Appellate Level. Some of Mr. Isaac’s most recent decisions are as follows:
