Judith Susskind

I work hard to win. Nothing gives me greater pleasure than helping a client overcome obstacles, and making his or her life better. Our jury trial system allows me to do this by successfully seeking justice and obtaining compensation for injured people that have been wronged. I spend time with my clients so I understand what they have been through, and are going through.

This helps to motivate me to help. I serve the law because I love to help people who deserve justice, and fighting for that justice brings tremendous satisfaction. Practicing medical malpractice law allows me to continue being a student, and learning to perfect my craft for the rest of my career. Judith (Judy) Susskind, a partner in the firm's Southfield office, is one of Michigan's foremost medical malpractice trial attorneys.

For more than 35 years, Judy has successfully handled medical malpractice cases. During her many years of going to trial in medical malpractice cases, she won a record-breaking three medical malpractice trials in a row in less than 11 weeks. In 2004, Michigan Lawyers Weekly named Judy "Lawyer of the Year," an honor based on peer recognition of her trial success. In 2019, she was one of the recipients of the Michigan Lawyers Weekly's "Women in the Law" honor.
