WILLIAM J. BOROWINSKI
Mr. Borowinski grew up in a blue-collar household in central New Jersey. He had no plans to attend college or law school. He came from a humble background where only his mother graduated high school. Mr. Borowinski joined the U.S. Army after graduating high school and served during peace time. He intended on serving twenty-years and retiring. However, at nineteen-years of age, while serving in the Army, his mother died of cancer. Due to this tragedy, and his mother's love of education and the law, he turned his mind toward a different path in an effort to honor her memory. He attended Middlesex County College and earned an Associate's Degree with Honors. He was the first in his family to receive an Associate's Degree, the first to receive a B.A. from Rutgers College, and the first to receive a Juris Doctorate. On his first attempt, he passed both the New York and New Jersey Bar exams, scoring high enough that he was eligible to waive into the prestigious Washington DC Bar. He presently is admitted to the New York State Bar, State and Federal New Jersey Bars, and the Third Circuit Court of Appeals. He will bring that same hard fought tenacity and determination to bear when he fights for you. Mr. Borowinski has been representing clients in personal injury and workers' compensation matters for over 24 years. Mr. Borowinski uses his valuable insight and experience to develop strategies that resulted in significant recoveries for his clients in cases involving trip and falls, snow and ice, medical malpractice, car accidents, product liability, employment cases, discrimination cases, and other personal injury matters including complex litigation. Where other attorneys saw little chance of recovery, Mr. Borowinski was able to see a case that had value and merit. Mr. Borowinski is a trial attorney with numerous trials and has settled thousands of Personal Injury and Workers' Compensation cases and brought his knowledge to The Haddad Law Firm.

CANDICE E. IHEME, ESQ.
TRIAL ATTORNEY
Experience
Ms. Iheme is a first-generation American. She never planned to attend law school. She graduated from Rutgers University-New Brunswick, cum laude, with a Bachelors in Economics (minor in Psychology). During college, she was offered a full-time position with a Fortune 500 insurance company. Upon graduation, she worked as an Auto Damage Claims Adjuster handling a mix of personal and commercial property damage and bodily injury claims.

Ms. Iheme attended Rutgers Law School in Newark. While there, she served as a Graduate Resident Assistant, Chair of the Moot Court Board, a LexisNexis Research Assistant, and as a Clinical Law Student with the Rutgers Education and Health Law Clinic.

Ms. Iheme also completed internships at the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey, and in the Essex County Superior Court- Criminal Division. She was selected as the 2021 Commencement Speaker and awarded for excellence in work on behalf of women and children.
After law school, Ms. Iheme successfully completed an appointment as a judicial clerkship at the Essex County Superior Court. Following her clerkship, she joined an AMLaw100 Firm, serving in its Litigation Department.
Currently, Ms. Iheme handles a mix of pre-litigation and litigation personal injury cases. She is committed to fighting for justice for her clients and ensuring that her clients get what they deserve and are entitled to.

That’s the moment Brett Rosen Shines.” The Good Men Project noted, “[w]ith this case, Rosen has proved himself yet again as an exceptional criminal defense attorney who can win no matter how difficult the circumstances.”
Rosen externed at the Bristol County District Attorney’s Office in Massachusetts, the same office that convicted former New England Patriots tight-end Aaron Hernandez. Rosen tried a jury trial during his time there wherein he prosecuted a misdemeanor crime as a student-attorney. He was also accepted into the Advanced Criminal Defense Clinic during law school and tried a bench trial. Early in his legal career, Rosen tried nine jury trials in the span of nine months, many of which he secured victories for his clients.
