Few attorneys can point to a career that has shaped both individual lives and the broader legal landscape. For more than five decades, Attorney Allen L. Rothenberg has built a reputation defined by courtroom excellence, historic results, and an unwavering commitment to justice.
Allen Rothenberg founded The Rothenberg Law Firm LLPin 1969 at a time when personal injury law was rapidly evolving, and victims often lacked the resources to challenge powerful institutions. From its inception, the firm was built with a singular focus: advocating for catastrophically injured clients who needed not just legal representation, but a voice capable of standing up to insurers, corporations, and government entities.
That vision has translated into extraordinary outcomes. Over the course of his career, Mr. Rothenberg, working alongside his legal team, has secured numerous multi-million-dollar verdicts and settlements, including a record-breaking judgment exceeding two billion dollars. These results are not simply financial milestones. They represent accountability on a scale rarely seen in civil litigation and have set benchmarks for what is possible when cases are prepared with precision and tried with conviction.
Mr. Rothenberg’s legal influence extends well beyond trial courts. He has been involved in high-profile matters before state, federal, and appellate courts, including cases that reached the Supreme Court of the United States. His work reflects a deep understanding of complex legal issues and a demonstrated ability to litigate at the highest levels of the American judicial system.
His peers have consistently recognized his impact. Mr. Rothenberg has been selected to The National Trial Lawyers: Top 100, an honor reserved for attorneys who demonstrate exceptional qualifications, trial results, and leadership within the legal profession.
In addition to his courtroom achievements, Mr. Rothenberg has become a trusted legal voice in the media. He has appeared on national and local television and radio programs, including Fox, ABC, CBS, NBC, and Court TV, where he has served as a legal commentator. Through these appearances, he has helped the public better understand complex legal issues while reinforcing the importance of access to justice.
Education and public service remain central to Mr. Rothenberg’s career. He has lectured at law schools, graduate programs, colleges, and secondary schools across the country, including Temple University School of Law, the University of Pennsylvania, and Villanova Law School. For more than 25 years, he has also served as National President of the National Jewish Commission on Law and Public Affairs (COLPA), a civil rights organization dedicated to protecting religious liberty and advocating for legal fairness nationwide.
Together, these accomplishments reflect a legal career defined not only by results but by influence, leadership, and a lasting commitment to justice that continues to shape the profession today.
