Meet Camila Medici, Esq.

Medici Law was born on July 1, 2011, as a true labor of love. I left my position as Head Attorney of the Workers’ Compensation Department at a prominent law firm because I had a vision: to build the most client-centered workers’ compensation practice in the country.

I believed great lawyering required more than legal knowledge. It required passion, courage, perseverance, creativity, and an open mind. Most importantly, I believed a great law firm should never ask its clients or its people to sacrifice their humanity for results.

From the beginning, Medici Law was built as a Results-Only Work Environment (ROWE). My team was given the freedom to work from wherever they could do their best work. What mattered was never where someone sat, or how many hours they spent sitting there. What mattered was the quality of the work, the results we achieved, and how well we served our clients.

In 2011, that was anything but conventional for a law firm. Years later, the workers’ compensation system itself began moving in the same direction. The New York State Workers’ Compensation Board began testing virtual hearings in 2017 and subsequently expanded them statewide, allowing injured workers to participate without having to travel to a hearing location. In 2020, virtual hearings became the standard across the system. For injured workers, particularly those whose injuries make travel difficult, that change made the system more accessible.

Medici Law didn’t become remote because the world changed. We were built this way from the beginning. Technology simply caught up with a philosophy we had embraced years earlier: excellent legal representation should be measured by results, not by where the work happens.
