Nicholas Tzaneteas has always been a lawyer who doesn’t back down. For 17 years he has not been afraid to stand up to the city; corporations; insurance companies to fight for the rights of his clients. When others may avoid cases because they are hard to prove or difficult because the opposition has big money and is representing longstanding, influential institutions, Mr. Tzaneteas has always been anxious to take up the challenge and turn over every stone to take cases to trial, at his own expense of time and money.
