We didn’t appear overnight. Our story began as Paris & Chaikin, grew into Chaikin PLLC, and today stands as Chaikin Trial Group. The same mission has guided us through every chapter: fight hard, communicate clearly, and treat every client like family.
From the start, Ian set the tone:
“We are a firm with powerful resources… From the moment we’re retained, the case gets our undivided attention… we will never be outworked, outfought, or outspent.”
That preparation-first mindset, combined with a team fluent in English, Spanish, and Hebrew, as well as four other languages, and licensed in NY, NJ, and FL, is how we’ve guided clients through construction injuries, serious crashes, and unsafe-property cases.

The results tell part of the journey—$100M+ recovered across New York—and so do the moments behind them: winning early liability so a client didn’t wait years, proving a “trivial” defect wasn’t trivial at all, and showing how a “low-impact” crash still changed a life.
As Ian says, “The consequences are personal to our clients, and they’re personal to us.” We serve the whole family, because a serious injury touches everyone.
What makes this place feel different is the people. Our office runs like a family, updates in plain English y en español, open doors, and yes, clients swinging by for a CTG t-shirt or survival kit long after their case is over. This year, we launched a new website and expanded our social media so help is one tap away, the moment you need it.
Five years in, the promise is the same and stronger: prepare like it’s trial from day one, move fast, speak plainly, and show up until the job is done.
