Amongst those cases was the first 8 figure verdict in New York history ( $10 million dollars for Betty Crabb, N.Y. County 1982), the highest plaintiff verdict in Westchester County, until that time ($25 million Dollars for plaintiff Ken Tanabe in 1993), the highest verdict in Rockland County until that time ($20 million dollars for David Braun in1990), and the highest loss of consortium verdict in New York State until that time ($3 million dollars for Mrs. Baumgarten in 1996 in Nassau County).
In 1983 Peter DeBlasio was listed in the preface of the first publication of the Best Lawyers in America and was included in all of its publications until his retirement.
