info_outlineThere’s not much Professor Myron Moskovitz hasn’t done in his 60 years of legal work. You can pretty much say he’s done it all, from being a Supreme Court clerk, legal aid attorney, and law professor to now running his own appellate law firm. Part of Myron’s long-standing success is his understanding of what judges care about and his ability to find themes of injustice instead of focusing on legal technicalities.
