The Bronx is home to 1.4 million people, the most densely developed borough for new construction in New York, and some of the city's busiest commercial corridors. That combination creates a high volume of personal injury cases across every category we handle.
Slip and fall cases are especially common in the Bronx given the combination of aging sidewalks, heavy foot traffic, and properties with deferred maintenance. If you slipped on a defective sidewalk, a wet floor, or an unmarked hazard — the property owner or the City of New York may be liable.
Construction accident cases in the Bronx are among the highest-value personal injury matters in the city. Under Labor Law §240, owners and general contractors are absolutely liable for falls and falling object injuries on job sites — regardless of the injured worker's documentation status.
⚠️ Bronx NYCHA Residents — Special Rule
If you were injured in or around a NYCHA development — Mitchel Houses, Patterson Houses, Morrisania, Castle Hill, or any other complex — you must file a Notice of Claim against the City of New York within 90 days of your accident. This deadline is absolute. Call us the same day if possible.
Car accidents on the Bronx's major roadways — the Cross Bronx, Grand Concourse, Tremont Avenue, White Plains Road — involve New York's no-fault insurance system, serious injury thresholds, and often commercial vehicles with separate insurance policies. We navigate all of it.
