Mr. Quinn’s expertise also extends to the representation of small businesses and construction companies in complex commercial litigation. Mr. Quinn is a 1997 graduate of Franklin &
Marshall College. He was a dual major in both Government and History, and also a member of F&M’s football team – a team that won three conference championships.
Following college, Mr. Quinn went on to graduate from the Penn State – Dickinson School of Law with a J.D. in 2000. He gained significant litigation experience in law school serving as the captain of the National Trial Moot Court Team, and as an intern for a New Jersey Superior Court judge, the Pennsylvania Attorney General’s Office, and a prominent Central Pennsylvania law firm. It was during law school that he decided to become a trial lawyer. Mr. Quinn’s pursuit of that dream led him to accept a prestigious clerkship with the Honorable Rosemarie Ruggiero Williams of The Superior Court of New Jersey following his graduation from law school.
Upon completion of his clerkship in August 2001, he went into private practice – joining a large
insurance defense law firm based in Philadelphia. Mr. Quinn left this position a year later – switching sides to represent plaintiffs at a prominent Philadelphia-based personal injury law firm. It was there that Mr. Quinn found his calling in representing victims of personal injury and wrongful death cases.
While there, he also pursued his LL.M. in Trial Advocacy at the Temple University of School of Law, and in 2003, graduated with honors. Mr. Quinn was chosen as the Best Oral Advocate in the program by the faculty. Mr. Quinn is licensed to practice law in the state and federal courts of Pennsylvania and New Jersey, as well as The Third Circuit Court of Appeals.
He regularly consults on cases nationwide and has a national catastrophic injury practice in which he works in conjunction with attorneys in other jurisdictions. He also routinely serves as an arbitrator and mediator – having been frequently appointed as a Judge Pro Tem by the Court of Common Pleas of Philadelphia County. Mr. Quinn is a member of the American Association for Justice (AAJ), Pennsylvania Association for Justice (PAJ), New Jersey Association for Justice (NJAJ), Philadelphia Bar Association, and Philadelphia Trial Lawyers Association (PTLA) where he is a member of the President’s Select and Future Leaders Committee.
