September 14, 2018

BROOKLYN – Kostantinos Mallas, Partner, Georgaklis & Mallas PLLC, has been recognized by the New York Metro Super Lawyers list for the sixth year in a row. Acknowledged in the practice areas of Personal Injury — General: Plaintiff and Personal Injury — Medical Malpractice: Plaintiff, Mr. Mallas is among an exclusive elite of no more than 5% of other lawyers in New York State selected by Super Lawyers.

Before being named to the New York Metro Super Lawyers list for the first time in 2013, Mallas was named a “Rising Star” in 2011 and 2012. Only 2.5% of all attorneys in the state are named “Rising Stars.”

His most notable accomplishment was his representation of a man awarded $18.6 million for his injuries, of which $16 million was for pain and suffering with the remainder directed toward past and future medical bills — the largest affirmed pain and suffering jury verdict in New York State to date.

Prior to founding the firm, Mallas was an Associate at Sullivan, Papain, Block, McGrath & Cannavo PC and held the same position at Crasto & Associates PC. He is admitted to practice law in New York and before the United States District Courts for the Eastern and Southern Districts of New York.
