Practice Profile: Ross Firsenbaum has a broad civil litigation practice with an emphasis on securities, bankruptcy and complex commercial litigation. He has represented major investment banks, broker dealers, investment advisors, corporations and individuals in state and federal court litigation throughout the country, and has extensive experience trying FINRA arbitrations.

Leadership, Pro Bono and Civic Work: Mr. Firsenbaum devotes substantial time to pro bono work, with an emphasis on wrongful incarcerations. Representing the Innocence Project and National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, he served in 2018 as amicus counsel in support of Appellant Kareem Bellamy, whose civil action seeking damages for his wrongful incarceration was dismissed. Mr. Firsenbaum’s brief focused on whether a municipality could be sued based on a district attorney’s office’s unconstitutional Brady disclosure policy. Adopting arguments from his brief, which New York Law Journal covered, the Second Circuit reversed and reinstated Bellamy’s case.
