Mo Hoffman

Mo Hoffman is a personal injury lawyer with Appell & Parrinelli whose work includes representing people harmed by medical negligence. He began his legal career defending medical institutions and physicians before moving to the plaintiff side. His earlier service as a New York City paramedic gives him practical familiarity with emergency care, medical decision-making, and the circumstances that can shape injury claims involving healthcare providers and institutions.

Hoffman earned a B.B.A. in Marketing from Baruch College and a J.D. from Brooklyn Law School. During law school, he completed a healthcare law fellowship focused on a patient’s right to refuse medical treatment. His legal education and emergency medical background provide a useful foundation for evaluating medical records, treatment decisions, and disputed standards of care in cases involving serious injuries and allegations of professional negligence.

Hoffman’s experience spans work on opposite sides of medical negligence disputes. His defense background exposed him to the strategies used by medical institutions and physicians, while his plaintiff practice centers on people seeking compensation for injuries. He is admitted in New York and New Jersey and before the US District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York, supporting litigation in state and federal forums.

Mo Hoffman combines litigation experience with firsthand knowledge of emergency medical services. He continues to volunteer as a paramedic, maintaining a close connection to the medical environment that informs much of his legal work. His practice is built around careful review of medical issues, practical case preparation, and representation of injured clients pursuing claims arising from medical negligence and related personal injury matters.
