About Margaret “Maggy” Mazlin

Margaret “Maggy” Mazlin is a nationally recognized trial attorney known for her exceptional command of the courtroom and her unrelenting pursuit of favorable outcomes for her clients in high-stakes litigation. With a wealth of strong experience and a solid reputation that extends well beyond the State of New York, Maggy is frequently called upon to lead the defense in some of the most complex, high-exposure cases in jurisdictions across the country.

Maggy’s trial record is marked by consistent success, whether securing defense verdicts on behalf of clients while facing down mountains of adverse evidence or steering complicated matters towards effective resolution through appellate or settlement options. Most recently, her commanding performance on a high-profile trial in Alaska earned critical acclaim from clients and courtroom observers - further evidence of her ability to adapt, persuade and prevail, no matter the venue.

In New York, Maggy is a fixture in courtrooms throughout the five boroughs of the city, particularly in the Bronx, where she is often entrusted with difficult, nuanced cases involving substantial exposure. She has also gotten positive results in Nassau and Suffolk Counties. Judges respect Maggy’s tenacity and preparation, while juries consistently respond well to her clear, compelling storytelling and trial acumen. Her detailed understanding of New York’s unique Labor Law, which is so solidly stacked against defendants, as well as the issues that arise during trials of cases about alleged Labor Law violations makes her a highly sought trial attorney in the state.

Maggy’s practice spans a broad spectrum of complex litigation, including matters involving construction site accidents, premises liability, motor vehicle accidents, recreational/sports injuries and professional liability. She has successfully defended major utilities, municipalities, landlords, construction companies and a diverse array of other commercial clients. Her strategic insight, meticulous case evaluation, unwavering attention to detail and persuasive courtroom demeanor make her a “go-to” trial lawyer for clients seeking effective leadership in litigation.

Maggy is admitted to practice in New York State as well as the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York. She speaks Russian and brings a culturally informed, personally tailored approach to every matter which she handles.
