Biography

Amy Leigh Insler, medical malpractice attorney serving Brooklyn

After graduating from SUNY-Binghamton, Amy attended John Marshall Law School in Chicago, receiving her Juris Doctorate in 1996. She interned during the summer months with a Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of New York. While in law school, she also served as an Associate Justice of the Moot Court and a Staff Editor of the Law Journal. Amy won the award for Best Oralist in the Interscholastic Moot Court Competition and then went on to coach eleven teams for national competition, including the National Health Law team, which placed as finalists. As an attorney her courtroom skills have resulted in many favorable outcomes, settlements and verdicts. Because of her medical knowledge, which includes pre-med undergraduate studies, assisting teaching Medical Terminology, and working as a Pharmacists Assistant, Amy is able to comprehend even the most complex medical records easily. Amy has lectured at numerous CLE courses regarding Infant and Death Compromise Orders, as well as Discovery Issues. Her aggressive and focused attitude has earned her the assignment of most failure to diagnose cancer cases where discovery has to be expedited. Under Amys supervision, these cases now move through discovery and on to the trial calendar in a matter of months. In her spare time she has participated in several fundraisers for cancer patients, including the Avon Breast Cancer 3-Day Event, St. Judes Childrens Hospital, and the Revlon Run/Walk. Additionally, Amy is a member of the New York State Academy of Trial Lawyers, New York State Bar Association, Brooklyn Bar Association and the New York State Trial Lawyers Association.
