Val Wallace

Val joined the team at our firm in December 2022. Prior to joining us, he was a sole practitioner representing plaintiffs in negligence and medical malpractice cases. He specializes in medical malpractice law, inspired by a deep fascination with medicine which dates back to his student days. As a student in Ireland, Val would often attend trials at the Four Courts in Dublin. It was during this period that he decided to pursue a career in law. Even though he had an inclination toward medicine, he found his true calling in the legal field. Val views his greatest professional success as not limited to a single achievement but a culmination of many. Among his numerous triumphs, he secured a $2.5M settlement on a Municipal special duty case in Westchester, and he’s most proud of obtaining a seven-figure settlement for a breast cancer survivor. His dedication to his clients is evident not only in these victories but also in the glowing reviews and thank-you cards he has received. In his personal life, Val enjoys travel and fishing. As a dual Irish-American citizen, he appreciates the opportunity to experience different cultures and outdoor landscapes.
