Esther Berezofsky

A formidable advocate in complex environmental litigation

Our community association engaged Esther Berezofsky after discovering significant groundwater contamination from a nearby industrial site that was impacting property values and raising health concerns. With her 38 years of experience, particularly her recognized expertise in Environmental Law and Mass Tort Litigation, she was the clear choice for such a complex, multi-party case. From our initial consultation at Motley Rice's Cherry Hill office, her deep knowledge of both the legal and scientific aspects was evident. She patiently explained the intricacies of New Jersey's environmental statutes and the long, strategic path of a class action, never oversimplifying but always ensuring we understood our position. Her background from Rutgers–Camden and her recognition by Best Lawyers gave our entire group immense confidence. Esther and her team built a compelling case, meticulously documenting the damages and negotiating tenaciously with the corporate defendants. The settlement we ultimately achieved was far more comprehensive than we initially hoped for, directly addressing remediation and providing meaningful compensation. If there was one minor critique, it would be that during the most intense phases of discovery, communication from her direct office could sometimes take a couple of days, which was anxiety-inducing for some residents. However, this was a small trade-off for the exceptional result. Esther is a dedicated and brilliant attorney who fights tirelessly for her clients.
