Karen I. Gold

Associate Attorney

Karen is a seasoned litigator with over a decade of experience handling a wide range of class action, mass tort, and business cases.  Karen firmly believes that every person is entitled to his or her day in court, and large companies should be held accountable for mistreating employees.

Karen became passionate about advocating for others at a young age. As a young adult, Karen spent her summers working with disadvantaged youth and children in the foster care system— helping to give them a voice.  In law school, Karen worked at the Civil Litigation Clinic, helping families who couldn’t afford the high hourly rates of most attorneys.  Ultimately, she received the annual Law Student Ethics Award from the Association of Corporate Counsel for her commitment to providing outstanding pro bono legal services to members of her community.

Karen currently dedicates her practice to fighting on behalf of “the little guy (or gal),” to ensure as many people as possible have access to legal help.

I have been working with Marlin & Saltzman on my case for quite some time, and have worked closely with Jody Rosen.  She has always kept me informed on where we are on all things and what I need to do or what to expect.  A great deal of pressure has been taken off of my hands and handled by a firm that, in my opinion, has gone above and beyond taking good care of their clients!!!  I want to thank Marlin & Saltzman for all that they have helped me with.  I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND this firm to anyone who is in need of legal representation. Thanks again Marlin & Saltzman, and may 2017 be a Happy New Year to all!
