The murder of the four children in Mechanicville, NY is heartbreaking, and the questions surrounding the years leading up to their deaths deserve answers.

As the Times Union reported, Liakas Law Partner and Chair of the Civil Rights Division Cassandra Rohme said the mishandling of the children’s abuse and the county’s alleged inadequate response leading up to their murders “goes beyond negligence.”

We remain committed to seeking justice for their father and meaningful changes to help protect children.

The heartbreaking loss of Harper, Hudson, Gavin and Gracelynn in Mechanicville, NY is a painful reminder of what can happen when warning signs involving vulnerable children are not taken seriously.

Liakas Law is representing their father in his pursuit of justice.

“These children remained in the home where ultimately this tragedy occurred, and it could have very easily been avoided had these warnings been taken seriously,” said Liakas Law Senior Partner Nicholas Liakas.

We are committed to seeking justice and meaningful change to help ensure warning signs involving vulnerable children are never ignored.

As seen in amNewYork today: An in-depth profile highlighting the people, philosophy and commitment to advocacy that have shaped Liakas Law.

Founding partners and brothers Stephen, Dean and Nicholas Liakas, along with Partners Paul Bitetti and Hon. Mark I. Partnow (Ret.), share their perspectives on what it means to fight for clients and use the law to create meaningful change.

“We want to help the little man and hold people accountable,” Stephen Liakas said. “We decided, why don’t we just open up our own personal injury firm and do it?”

“We saw from other places that we may have worked or interned at how they were running things. We were able to take bits and pieces and see what was good, bad, how they dealt with clients, how they dealt with their files, and I think we all just said, ‘We can sharpen this tool, we can do it better and better represent these individuals,’” Dean Liakas said.

“A trial lawyer should be a protector, someone who stands up for people, someone who protects the next person,” Nicholas Liakas said. “We care about the next person.”

“There’s something special about Liakas Law Firm – the caliber of their attorneys, the way they care about their clients, the way they try a case,” said Hon. Mark Partnow (Ret.).

“You are fighting for the underdog, and that’s something that’s always driven me, and something I really liked about Liakas Law from the beginning,” Paul Bitetti said.

Five voices reflecting one shared commitment at Liakas Law: standing up for people and making a difference that extends beyond a single case.

Four children are gone, and a father is left with a loss no parent should ever have to endure.

Liakas Law, P.C. is representing their father as he seeks answers and accountability over what we allege were repeated failures to protect his children.

“Especially with Child Protective Services, they have the obligation and they have a duty to protect these children in these high-risk environments when they know that there are problems,” said Liakas Law Senior Partner Nicholas Liakas. “Time and time again, we just see them failing to act and protect these children.”

No dollar amount could ever represent what this parent has lost.

“That number is representative of the harm that CPS and others have caused to his family,” Liakas said.

Our focus is on uncovering what happened, holding those responsible accountable, and seeking justice for the unimaginable loss of four children.

The loss of four children is an unimaginable tragedy, and our hearts remain with the family as they grieve.

Liakas Law is representing the children’s father in seeking accountability for the alleged failures that preceded their deaths. As Senior Partner Nicholas Liakas told the Times Union, this fight is about more than one case — it is about ensuring warnings involving vulnerable children are taken seriously and that the systems entrusted with protecting them fulfill their responsibility.

We are fighting for answers, meaningful systemic change, and justice so that no family is forced to endure such a devastating loss again.

Meet Jason Paget, Lead Attorney with Liakas Law, P.C.

Jason focuses his practice on representing injured individuals and their families in serious personal injury cases. With more than 15 years of personal injury litigation experience, Jason has managed personal injury lawsuits through every stage of litigation, from initial investigation through discovery, motion practice, trial, and appeal. He has tried several cases to verdict in New York State Supreme Court and argued appeals before New York’s Appellate Division.

Jason has achieved millions of dollars in settlements and judgments on behalf of injured plaintiffs and their families. Before focusing his practice on representing plaintiffs, Jason spent years as a trial attorney representing property owners, large corporations, construction companies, municipal entities, and other institutions in serious personal injury and other high-stakes litigation. Jason also gained early litigation and trial experience through positions with the New York City Transit Authority, the New York State Attorney General’s Office, the New York County District Attorney’s Office, and the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. That experience gives him valuable and unique insight into how insurance companies, defense counsel, and institutional defendants evaluate and attack claims, challenge liability, and attempt to limit damages. He uses that knowledge to help build stronger cases for the individuals and families that he represents.

Jason earned his J.D. from Brooklyn Law School, where he received Excellence for the Future Awards in Constitutional Law and Federal Criminal Law. He graduated cm laude, with highest distinction, from the University at Buffalo. He is admitted to practice in New York and in the United States District Courts for the Southern and Eastern Districts of New York.
