Having been a longtime Long Island resident, it's the secret that everyone knows about, that Bethpage and the site are a contaminated mess that is causing cancer and causing everyone suffering and loss of loved ones,”

Paul Napoli

Paul J. Napoli is an attorney in New York City, with offices in nine states across the United States. Paul was appointed by the United States District Court as Co-Liaison Counsel representing more than 11,000 first responders and other rescue and recovery workers who became ill or were injured during the rescue, recovery and debris-removal activities at the World Trade Center site in the months following 9/11 and was instrumental in obtaining settlements that are today valued at more than $816 million for his clients. Paul also lobbied New York State and the U.S. Congress for and was instrumental in obtaining two important pieces of legislation to assist WTC- injured workers. These are an amendment to New York’s General Municipal Law §50-I (“JIMMY NOLAN’S LAW”) that provided a one-year savings statute for otherwise time-barred first responder claims and the JAMES ZADROGA 9/11 HEALTH AND COMPENSATION ACT OF 2010 (“Zadroga Bill”), which provides for medical monitoring and cash awards for injured first responders and other WTC survivors, local office workers and community members injured by the post-9/11 fallout. Paul has been a generous contributor to the 9/11 Memorial, the 9/11 Memorial Museum and other organizations working to support first responders and other WTC-injured workers.
