In order to collect feedback on firm and attorney work within specific regions, Best Lawyers curates “metro areas.”

For research purposes, smaller and more rural cities located within a reasonable distance to larger cities are combined into single geographical regions—metro areas—to help us collect as much feedback and data for specific individuals, firms, and practice areas as possible. We also award “Lawyer of the Year” accolades through these metro area distinctions.

Mail-in Ballot Mayhem: Pennsylvania’s Current Electoral Mix Up

A FEDERAL APPEALS COURT RECENTLY STATED THAT PENNSYLVANIA HAS A GLARING DISCREPANCY WITH

ITS MAIL-IN BALLOT, WHICH, IF LEFT UNTREATED, COULD RESULT IN INVALID VOTES.

ON APRIL 3 , a series of Pennsylvania-based federal appeals court judges issued a critical ruling, affirming that in the future, it is a requirement for voters to put accurate, handwritten dates on mail-in ballot envelopes before submission. This issue, which as of late has broadly divided the 3rd Circuit, rescinded a ruling administered by a lower court, favoring state-based voters’ rights advocates. The advocates in question argue that by rejecting or turning away mail-in ballots with improper dates, the government would quickly violate the Civil Rights Act of 1964. All this comes on the brink of an upcoming presidential election, in which Pennsylvania historically plays the role of a swing state.

As determined in the case of NAACP v. Schmidt , this ruling will reinstate a previously held technical mandate that resulted in thousands of Pennsylvania votes being invalidated during the 2022 election. The state has emphasized that the issue stemmed from a majority of voters mistakenly writing their date of birth in the field where they were supposed to put the date on which they filled out the ballot. While the number of invalidated votes stands to account for only a minute fraction of Pennsylvania’s vast pool of eligible voters, the court’s current decision draws attention to the state’s electoral procedures and capability ahead of the upcoming primaries in late April.

This ruling is the latest development in what has been a longstanding legal battle over the state’s mail-in ballot system. In the past, numerous lower court judges ruled that mail-in ballots should be counted regardless of the dates on the envelopes, as long as they were submitted

on time. However, the appeals court determined that the Civil Rights Act section cited by the lower court does not extend to ballot-casting rules like envelope dates but only concerns eligibility to vote.

“The date decision is irrelevant to whether a vote is received timely; the blink response is to believe a voter’s failure to date a return envelope should not cause his ballot to be disqualified and does not apply to rules, like the date requirement, that govern how a qualified voter must cast his ballot for it to be counted,” stated Senior U.S. Circuit Judge Thomas Ambro, as initially reported by the Bucks County Beacon.

Ambro, who was appointed by former President Clinton in 1999, was quick to note that the date requirement has little to no apparent purpose. However, since the state’s Supreme Court ruled that dating envelopes was a mandatory step, “undated or misdated ballots are invalid under state law and must be set aside.” Additionally, Ambro expressed that state law mandates mail-in voters to date the declaration only on the return envelope, rendering ballots invalid if this requirement is not met.

The ACLU of Pennsylvania, representing the voters seeking to challenge the ballot mandate, contested that the Civil Rights Act prohibits disqualifying voters due to paperwork errors irrelevant to their overall voter eligibility. Additionally, the organization expressed concern that thousands of votes could go uncounted due to a minor error. If upheld, this decision would’ve been the early makings of a legal timebomb, potentially ending in a Supreme Court showdown over the swing state’s ballots ahead of the highly anticipated November presidential election.

Harris J. Chernow

Franchise Law

Philadelphia, PA

Since 1995, Harris J. Chernow has worked within the Franchise Law practice area, garnering nearly 30 years of experience by representing franchisors, franchisees and distributors nationwide. Chernow, who specializes in franchise transactions and dispute resolution matters, has represented both leaders and fresh faces in the franchising and retail distribution space.

Currently a partner at Reger Rizzo & Darnall’s Philadelphia Office, Chernow also serves as Chair of the Firm’s National Franchise & Distribution Practice Group. Recognized in The Best Lawyers in America® since 2006 for Franchise Law, Chernow is currently being honored as “Lawyer of the Year” for the same practice area in Philadelphia for 2024, having received the award three previous times.

Of his legal career and recent recognition, Chernow stated: “I am honored and humbled to receive this acknowledgment from my peers and Best Lawyers. I would like to think that my professionalism, work ethic and determination, along with my franchise, corporate and dispute resolution background, were contributing factors for receiving this recognition. I am very grateful and fortunate to do work I like, and which I believe makes a positive impact for my clients and colleagues. In franchise law, no two transactions or cases are identical, and often, my clients require creatively crafted legal work, which makes my practice interesting every single day. The ‘challenge’ is what I enjoy, and watching my clients achieve their goals makes navigating the unusual twists and turns worth it.

“One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is being able to help a client map out a plan for a successful business and watch them grow that business and achieve their dreams. I have clients who start as a single-unit owner and, over time, grow their business to multi-unit ownership, which they then sell or transition to other family members. Being part of their journey is extremely rewarding. I am also fortunate to work with a diverse group of individuals and businesses from all backgrounds and industries. Learning from my clients about their businesses, culture, drive and work ethic is a true inspiration.”

In addition to working as partner at Reger Rizzo & Darnall, Chernow also dedicates his time to serving as Lead Counsel to the Temple University Alumni Association, his alma mater.

“A great attorney is not necessarily the smartest person in the room, but the one who can listen and see through to the real issues. A great attorney is sharp, professional and acts with honesty and integrity above all else. A great attorney works relentlessly for the benefit of each client and is willing to have brutally honest and sometimes very uncomfortable conversations about the achievability of a goal or case. I am very lucky to be doing work I like. I get to turn people’s dreams into reality. But perhaps more important than a specific work highlight to share, is my work mentoring the next generation of attorneys,” concluded Chernow.

Pribanic Secures Milestone Verdict In Rural PA County

Victor H. Pribanic secured one of 2023’s most notable verdicts in a Pennsylvania county that historically has not been empathic to plaintiffs. The ten-time Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” revealed how different trial tactics, including a humorous analogy about his dog, had the bite needed to sway the jury.

McKEAN COUNTY is a picturesque rural area located at the northern-most point of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, sharing the border with New York. The County Court of Common Pleas has a track record that has not been favorable to plaintiffs.

“We knew we were facing tough odds, just based on the history of McKean County,” recalled Pribanic & Pribanic Co-Founder Victor H. Pribanic. “Judge Christopher Hauser had never presided over a case where the jury sided with an injured patient in a medical malpractice case.”

In fact, publicly available records indicated that a jury verdict had not been rendered since the start of the 21st century. Pribanic assumed this was likely among the reasons why his clients were offered an extremely low settlement from the defense. Still, he acknowledged the legal arena he was entering and prepared for trial in June 2023.

The Challenge

Pribanic’s client was a 66-year-old elementary school janitor who had lost his left leg below the knee due to the negligence of his physicians; an emergency room doctor and his primary care physician failed to properly assess his left foot and did not detect an abscess that eventually spread, necessitating an amputation below the knee.

The six-day trial was about to break for a weekend when the defense presented surprise testimony from an emergency medicine expert, describing Pribanic’s client as reckless and not

taking prescribed antibiotics. That weekend, attorney Sherie Painter Canin, who tried the case along with Pribanic, pored over files and uncovered a hospital document given to the victim with specific instructions for him to stop taking the antibiotic. As Pribanic cross-examined the ER doctor the following Monday, he was able to expose the mistruths by displaying the defendant doctors’ signature at the bottom of the hospital record.

The Solution

Next, Pribanic cross-examined the defense’s internal medicine expert. He used a hypothetical example of caring for one of his English Settlers, Pitty Pat, pictured on the cover, whose paw was hypothetically injured during a hunting excursion; his analogy included the many steps he and the veterinarian would take to ensure they knew where the dog’s injury was and how he’d present the information to a veterinarian. Pribanic had received some chuckles throughout the tale, and finally asked the doctor, “Was my client entitled at least as good a level of care Pitty Pat received?”

The doctor responded, “Yes,” to which Pribanic replied, “Was it done?” And he had to reply, truthfully, “It wasn’t documented.”

“I suspected the defense lawyers would poke fun at me as well, which they did during closing arguments,” said Pribanic, a careerlong member of the American Association for Justice and the Pennsylvania Association of Trial Lawyers. “But this helped strengthen our case by reinforcing in the minds of the jury

just how simply our client’s injury could have been avoided.”

It is this sort of creative thinking that has kept Victor Pribanic at the forefront of catastrophic injury law, and why he was named Best Lawyers “Lawyer of the Year” in 2024 in Pittsburgh in two areas – Product Liability Litigation–Plaintiffs and Medical Malpractice–Plaintiffs. To date, he has earned this honor 10 times since 2010, having previously won four times for Product Liability Litigation, three times for Medical Malpractice, and once for Personal Injury Litigation.

The Record-Breaking Result

The strategy proved effective. The jury returned a $3.25 million verdict for the client, the first medical malpractice plaintiff award since 2000 and the largest verdict in the history of McKean County. As they often do, one of the jurors later contacted Pribanic & Pribanic to commend Victor for his representation.

“I asked her if the jury was bothered by my analogy to Pitty Pat,” Pribanic said. “She replied, ‘Not at all. We all realized this man had received worse treatment than a dog.’ It was an important trial where we were bucking the odds.”

These sorts of challenges drive Pribanic & Pribanic’s team, and their innovative solutions enable them to proudly maintain their place as leaders in catastrophic injury law.

ONES TO WATCH AWARDS

These recognitions are given to attorneys who are earlier in their careers for outstanding professional excellence in private practice in the United States. Our “Ones to Watch” recipients typically have been in practice for 5-9 years. Our methodology for determining these awards remains the same as it did when Best Lawyers was founded more than 40 years ago: peer-review. Lawyers are the best resource to provide feedback on the caliber of work performed by their peers. “Ones to Watch” is not a seed list to Best Lawyers and all hopeful candidates must be nominated and vetted by their peers recognized in Best Lawyers. Visit bestlawyers.com/ones-to-watch for more details

THEYEAR 2023 marked a significant chapter in the storied career of Pribanic & Pribanic. Led by renowned trial veteran Victor H. Pribanic, the firm achieved its newest record-setting injury jury verdict in Pennsylvania and received individual and organizational accolades that further strengthen its 40-plus-years legacy.

One of the most highly regarded civil litigators in Pennsylvania, Victor is joined by his brothers and name partners Ernest and Jeffrey and other skilled lawyers and staff. This deep bench of legal and medical talent has uniquely positioned Pribanic & Pribanic to secure hundreds of millions of dollars in verdicts and settlements for victims and their families in the areas of product liability, catastrophic injury, medical malpractice, and birth injury.

“The catastrophic injury and medical negligence landscapes continue to evolve, and we evolve with them,” said Victor Pribanic, a career-long member of the American Association for Justice and the Pennsylvania Association of Trial Lawyers. “Our most recent successes are a testament to our ability to innovate and remain sharp in the courtroom.”

The firm received high acclaim for securing a $3.25 million jury verdict in June 2023 in McKean County for a man who claimed his doctors’ negligent treatment caused the loss of his foot. Victor Pribanic tried the case in Smethport and

said it was among the most memorable results in the firm’s history.

“The defense presented last-minute findings that might have otherwise saved their argument,” Pribanic noted. “By retaining our focus and even using a dose of humor, we were able to shoot holes through this surprise testimony that secured justice for our client.”

The result was a standout for the year, as well. Publicly available information confirmed that the verdict in 2023 marked the first time a plaintiff has won in a medical malpractice trial in McKean County since at least 2000.

Firm leadership is regularly recognized for their achievements. Victor Pribanic received a special honor when was named Best Lawyers® “Lawyer of the Year” in 2024 in Pittsburgh in two areas – Product Liability Litigation–Plaintiffs and Medical Malpractice–Plaintiffs. This rarity marked his ninth and tenth “Lawyer of the Year” Awards since 2010, having won four times for Product Liability Litigation, three times for Medical Malpractice, and once for Personal Injury Litigation. Ernest J. Pribanic was named Best Lawyers “Lawyer of the Year” in 2023 Product Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs. Ernest also lectures at Duquesne University School of Law and was inducted to the Academy of Trial Lawyers of Allegheny County in 2021. Jeffrey Pribanic has been included in Best Lawyers annually since 2020 for his work

in Personal Injury Litigation – Plaintiffs and Workers’ Compensation Law – Claimants.

Pribanic & Pribanic is proud of their reputation for holding well-funded defendants – which have included the federal government, local townships, General Motors and U.S. Steel – accountable for injuries that changed or ended their clients’ lives. Standout resolutions include a $103 million accounting malpractice verdict, and a landmark $2.2 million defamation award, which at the time ranked as one of the top 10 defamation verdicts in the history of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority. The firm has also secured numerous eight-figure settlements in brain injury and other medical negligence cases.

Given this legacy of results in diverse cases, Pribanic & Pribanic again earned Tier 1 rankings in Pittsburgh from Best Law Firms in three practice areas: Personal Injury Litigation—Plaintiffs, Product Liability Litigation – Plaintiffs, and Medical Malpractice – Plaintiffs.

These accolades demonstrate that even when they’ve been on the opposite side of the bench, Pribanic & Pribanic has earned the respect of their peers – one of the highest compliments a law firm can receive.

“We’re truly grateful for the recognition from our colleagues in the legal field,” said Victor Pribanic.
