Morty Newburgh is a NYC attorney in practice at his own firm with a substantial LGBTQ practice since 1985. He is also the former President of LeGaL The LGBT Bar Association of New York In this episode, we will talk about one of his most significant HIV/AIDS related litigation and the trial’s expert witness, Mathilde Krim, Ph.D., who was a medical researcher and the founding chairman of amfAR, The Foundation for AIDS Research. We will also explore what it was like for Morty to practice law in the LGBTQ community with many of his clients dying, and what it was like to live through the incomprehensible loss of so many friends and colleagues.
