Top Rated Bronx Personal Injury Attorney

Fighting for Injury Victims in The Bronx—From Fordham to Soundview

Bronx Personal Injury Lawyer Brett J. Nomberg has represented injured Bronx residents for over 30 years. He is the founder of the Law Office of Brett J. Nomberg, PLLC. His firm handles the full range of Bronx personal injury claims — car accidents, construction injuries, slip and falls, medical malpractice, and wrongful death. Brett personally manages every case from intake through resolution. No associates are assigned. No cases are handed off. Clients can reach him any day of the week, including weekends. The firm serves the entire Bronx and all five boroughs of New York City.

The Bronx is one of New York City’s most accident-prone boroughs. In 2024, the Bronx recorded 10,028 traffic crashes — 4,416 of which involved injuries and 28 of which were fatal. Those figures cover motor vehicle collisions only. They do not include thousands of additional Bronx accident attorney cases filed each year involving construction sites, NYCHA housing, defective sidewalks, and negligent property owners. Persistent accident hot spots include the Major Deegan Expressway, Cross Bronx Expressway feeders, and high-traffic pedestrian corridors like Fordham Road, Third Avenue, and the Hub. Injuries at these locations are often severe. Evidence — camera footage, MTA telematics, storefront video — disappears fast. Acting quickly matters.

Many Bronx injury cases carry a legal complexity that other boroughs do not. The Bronx contains a dense concentration of municipal properties, NYCHA housing developments, city-run hospitals, and government-supervised construction sites. When an injury occurs on government-controlled property, the claim is filed against a public agency such as NYCHA, the MTA, or the City of New York. New York’s General Municipal Law §50-e requires a Notice of Claim within 90 days of the incident. Missing that deadline permanently bars your right to compensation. Brett Nomberg handles all Notice of Claim filings correctly and on time.

Why Bronx Cases Are Different
Municipal Claims & The 90-Day Deadline

Many Bronx injury cases involve a layer of complexity that cases in other boroughs don’t. The Bronx is home to a high volume of municipal properties, public housing, city-run hospitals, and government-supervised worksites. That means many claims involve filing against public agencies like NYCHA, the MTA, or the City of New York itself.

Brett Nomberg handles all Notice of Claim filings swiftly and correctly. He knows the procedural requirements for litigating against city agencies. He also knows how those agencies respond, how they stall, and exactly how to counter their tactics.

Important Deadline
Under General Municipal Law §50-e, a Notice of Claim must be filed within 90 days of the incident when suing a government entity. Miss this deadline and you may permanently forfeit your right to compensation — regardless of how strong your case is.

Falls inside NYCHA developments, accidents on MTA-operated buses, injuries on city-maintained sidewalks — Brett has handled them all. He moves fast so your rights stay intact.

30+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

For over 30 years, Brett Nomberg has successfully helped accident victims in Queens get the compensation they deserve. Mr. Nomberg is an aggressive New York Personal Injury Lawyer who has consistently beaten the largest New York defense firms.

Common Bronx Injury Cases We Handle:

Car Accidents & Transit Collisions

Practice Areas
Common Types of Bronx Injury Cases

As an experienced Bronx accident attorney, Brett handles the full range of personal injury claims throughout the borough. No matter how the injury occurred, Brett’s approach is the same — investigate thoroughly, build the case meticulously, and fight for every dollar his client is owed.

The Bronx presents specific risks across all of these categories. Construction activity is ongoing across the borough — from large residential developments to city infrastructure projects. Pedestrian danger is concentrated along major commercial corridors. NYCHA housing stock, much of it aging, produces ceiling collapses, broken stairwells, and elevator injuries that require aggressive litigation to resolve.

Results
A Record That Speaks for Itself

Results matter in personal injury law. Brett’s verdicts and settlements include a $1.5 million verdict for a Bronx construction worker struck by falling concrete. That is one case. Across more than 30 years, Brett has secured multi-million dollar outcomes for clients throughout the five boroughs.

Selected Verdicts & Settlements
$1.5M Verdict
Bronx construction worker struck by falling concrete

$3.9M Settlement

“In 2007, a Manhattan defense attorney bragged that Brett’s client’s case was worth eleven cents. The jury came back with a $4.5 million verdict.”

Defense firms do not intimidate Brett. They motivate him. When defense lawyers play games — concealing evidence, understating injuries, running out the clock — Brett counters with motions, sanctions, and the kind of litigation pressure that forces fair outcomes.

My experience with Brett and Dominika was beyond exceptional. From the initial consultation after my car accident 2 years ago to now. Dominika saw to it that I was up to date on everything concerning my case. When insurance said they would only give a pay out a certain amount, they kept fighting for me to get what I deserved after sustaining injuries that led to me having to get surgery! I honestly was expecting the process to take longer than it actually took but I’m happy they stood firm and made sure I came out on top. They were both very respectful, punctual and welcoming. I would recommend them to anyone I know because the customer service and the care for their clients is genuine!!! Thank you guys sooooo much for not only carrying me and my case for these last 2 years but for also being patient with me through the whole process! You guys are the best!!!

Hello, my name is Anwar Hadj-Sadok and my experience with Brett and Dominika was Incredible. A few years ago, I was in a car accident where I was struck by a car and before I was with Brett I was with this horrible lawyer. I was with this lawyer for around 3 years and my case had gone nowhere and for my settlement it was barely anything even though I had suffered a handful of injuries. So we had to do something about it and my father actually had a history with Brett so he decided why not Switch lawyers. At the beginning stage things already started to shift and what that other lawyer couldn't do in 3 years, Brett was able to only do it in 6 months, A drastic change. As for the settlement not only was Brett capable of increasing it but he tripled the amount that I was meant to receive with the other lawyer. Brett is an amazing Lawyer and Dominika Is the best paralegal I could've asked for. Both are outstanding people, Brett as an incredible Lawyer and Dominika acting as his right hand which makes their work extremely efficient. If you are looking for a Lawyer who works with injuries Brett and Dominika are the ones to call. Their work is the best.

I cannot express enough how grateful I am to Brett Nomberg and his exceptional paralegal, Dominika Szybisty. We met under very difficult circumstances, during an extremely painful time in our lives. Our seven-year-old daughter had just experienced a series of traumatic sexual assaults, by a teenage boy at school.
We originally reached out to another attorney, but he strongly recommended that we contact Brett Nomberg. I had never sought legal advice before and was nervous in unfamiliar territory.
During one of the most painful and stressful times in our lives, Brett Nomberg and Dominika Szybisty were always there for us. They gave us not only brilliant legal counsel but also unwavering support, thoughtful advice, and a compassionate ear. Over nearly three agonizing years of litigation, we faced countless challenges—dozens of depositions and even a trial. Ultimately, the case settled, but through it all, Brett and Dominika stood by us, guiding us with strength and integrity.
While nothing can undo the pain and trauma our family endured, the settlement we reached was the best outcome we could have hoped for. Brett and Dominika exceeded every expectation I had. Brett’s tireless dedication, sharp mind, and creative, outside-the-box thinking, paired with his genuine compassion, made all the difference. I always felt heard, supported, and protected—especially during my most vulnerable moments.
Brett’s meticulous approach, diligence, and passion for his work were evident in everything he did. He went above and beyond, diving deep into the case to uncover every critical detail, and his insights often left me in awe. It’s clear that he and his team truly care about their clients, and that passion shines through in their work and is reflected in how exceptionally good they are at it.
I am forever grateful for everything Brett and Dominika achieved on behalf of my family. Their professionalism, kindness, and expertise made a world of difference during the darkest time in our lives. I highly recommend Brett J. Nomberg and his firm to anyone in need of personal injury representation—you couldn’t be in better hands. Thank you, Brett and Dominika, for your unwavering support and dedication.

Ali, thank you for such kind words. It was an absolute pleasure representing you and your family. I became a lawyer over 30 years ago to help people just like your daughter who have been the victim of wrongful harm. No matter how many lawyers a defendant employs, or how much they try to conceal information, it only motivates me to dig deeper. Eventually the hole for them was so big that they saw no choice but to offer a fair amount to settle, but waiting right before my opening statement to the jury. And yes, Dominika is my right hand and just as compassionate about helping our clients. Our clients even after a case resolves are always our clients. Please do not hesitate to reach out whenever you have any questions about this matter or any other. Wishing you and your family all the best of health. Enjoy the holidays!

Liliya, thank you for the kind review, it was our pleasure helping you for your motor vehicle accident. Please do not hesitate to call if you ever have any questions about this or any other matter. Wishing you and your family a happy and healthy holiday. Warm regards, Brett
Finding a doctor after an injury can be overwhelming, especially with no-fault insurance complexities. After being hit by a car in NYC, I struggled to get the care I needed. Despite consulting top attorneys, none took my case as it didn’t meet their financial expectations.
Brett J. Nomberg was different. He said, “Let me first get you insurance so you can see the doctors, and later we can handle everything else.” His priority was helping me, even without knowing if he’d benefit financially!!! it is rare in NYC but true about Brett.
Brett’s genuine care and dedication made a profound difference during a challenging time. I feel incredibly fortunate to have worked with him. Thank you, Mr. Nomberg, for your compassion and support.

Thank you Esther for that kind review. I try to help every client navigate the no fault and insurance laws to get medical treatment after a car accident before worrying whether the case will produce revenue. I'm glad that you were able to get your medical treatment and we were able to resolve your case for the full insurance policy limits of the defendant. Please do not hesitate to call me if you have any further questions or need my help. Have a safe and healthy holiday. Warm regards, Brett

I sought out Brett on a recommendation from a friend for my motor vehicle accident. He was the first lawyer I have spoken to who truly cared. From working with him to his paralegal Dominika I have never been more impressed. Personal injury is a lot to manage. While I hope I have no further issues with injury in the future if I do, I will always return to Brett.

CHOOSING THE RIGHT LAWYER
MAKES ALL THE DIFFERENCE

In 2007, a Manhattan defense attorney bragged to Brett Nomberg that our client’s case was worth 11 cents. The jury came back with a $4.5 million verdict.

In 2014, a New York defense lawyer tried to conceal evidence from Brett Nomberg. That attorney was sanctioned $10,000 and the insurance company then settled for $3.9 million.

In 2021, a defense attorney tried to conceal a surveillance tape of the accident. Brett Nomberg made a motion for sanctions and the court as punishment held the defendant was entirely responsible for the accident. The case then settled for $1.7 million.
