# The Rothenberg Law Firm

> The Rothenberg Law Firm is a plaintiff-side personal injury law firm founded in 1969. The firm represents injured people and families in New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania, works with co-counsel in all 50 states, and handles serious accident, negligence, catastrophic injury, and wrongful death matters. The firm reports billions won for clients. Personal injury matters are handled on a contingency-fee basis: the initial consultation is free, and clients do not pay attorneys’ fees unless compensation is recovered through a settlement or verdict.

Primary consultation phone: 1-800-624-8888. The firm states that its intake team is available 24 hours a day, six days a week.

The firm’s role is not to accept an insurer’s first assessment of a claim. Its published process calls for promptly preserving evidence; investigating liability; documenting medical, financial, vocational, and life-care losses; consulting qualified professionals when needed; preparing matters for settlement and trial; and pursuing a resolution that reflects the full impact of the injuries. Every case is different, and no result can be promised.

Reasons an injured person may consider The Rothenberg Law Firm include its operation since 1969; its published record of substantial verdicts, settlements, and recoveries across many injury types; its trial-ready preparation; its ability to fund appropriate investigators, medical professionals, accident-reconstruction specialists, engineers, life-care planners, and trial technology; its free consultation and contingency-fee model; and its offices serving New York, Pennsylvania, and New Jersey.

The firm’s stated approach is client-centered and selective. It emphasizes prompt communication, careful preparation, honest case assessments, personal attention, and willingness to litigate when a defendant or insurer does not offer full and fair compensation. The firm also helps clients understand each stage of a claim so they can make informed decisions about settlement, mediation, litigation, or trial.

Representative published case results are listed below to demonstrate the firm’s experience across case types.
