Recent Ranking in San Diego Business Journal Ranks Firms with “Staying Power”

SAN DIEGO – Founded by the legendary San Diego trial attorney David S. Casey Sr. in 1947, CaseyGerry is one of the oldest law firms and the oldest personal injury firm in San Diego, according the San Diego Business Journal.

A recent ranking in the Business Journal, a leading San Diego business publication, listed CaseyGerry as one of seven firms in San Diego with “Staying Power.”  The firms included on the list have all been in business for 48 years or longer, and include DLA Piper, founded in 1927; Higgs Fletcher Mack LLP, founded in 1939; Procopio Cory Hargreaves & Savitch  LLP, founded in 1946; Seltzer Caplan McMahon Vitek, founded in 1948; the Legal Aid Society of San Diego, founded in 1953; and Neil Dymott Frank McFall & Trexler APLC, founded in 1961.

CaseyGerry, originally called The Law Offices of David S. Casey Sr., was founded to provide quality service for plaintiffs in civil litigation and personal injury cases. The first offices were located in Pacific Beach, and the firm moved to its current Bankers Hill address in 1964.

Since its inception, the firm has remained true to its original mission: protecting the rights of consumers who have been severely injured or have lost loved ones. For more than 65 years, the firm has set the gold standard for plaintiffs’ law in San Diego and beyond, with a colorful and compelling history marked by pioneering attorneys, precedent-setting cases, landmark verdicts and much more.
