Getting hit while driving on a Bronx highway can flip your life upside down. We’ve helped hundreds of Bronx clients recover physically, financially, and emotionally — after a crash on the Cross Bronx Expressway, the Bruckner Expressway, the Bronx River Pkwy, I-95 or Major Deegan Expwy.
Highway crashes in the Bronx often involve more than one vehicle — and more than one party at fault. We help figure out who's legally responsible, and which insurance policy pays.
We check GPS logs, black box data, driver hours, and truck maintenance records to hold commercial carriers accountable after serious highway crashes.
If you were hit by an NYPD cruiser, MTA bus, or DOT truck, you may only have 90 days to file a notice of claim. We act fast to protect your rights.
From lane-cutters to distracted drivers, we identify who caused the crash — even in multi-car pileups at highway speeds.
Missing cones, bad signage, or dangerous lane merges in work zones can lead to claims against contractors or agencies managing the site.
Company vans, moving trucks, and rental vehicles from outside New York are common on I-95 and the Cross Bronx. We track down ownership and file across state lines if needed.
Tap any item below to see exactly what to do after a crash — especially if a tractor-trailer or commercial vehicle was involved.
Even if you walked away from the crash, get checked. Highway injuries — especially from high-speed or truck crashes — can take hours or days to show up.
Take wide shots, close-ups, and video. Get the truck’s signage, skid marks, road conditions, and debris. This is especially important if it was a tractor-trailer.
Get license plates, names, insurance info — and trucking company details if it was a commercial vehicle. Take photos of DOT numbers or logos if you can.
Highway crashes happen fast — if anyone pulled over or saw it happen, their info is gold. Witnesses disappear quickly once traffic clears.
They may call quickly and sound helpful. Don’t give any statements. You are not required to speak to them — and they’re trained to protect the company.
Include where you were coming from, what lane you were in, what you saw, and how the crash unfolded. These notes help lock in your memory later.
Keep a simple log — pain, missed work, doctor visits, stress, or anything that’s changed. Highway accident injuries can get worse over time.
If a trucking company or insurer offers a quick check — pause. It might be far less than what you’re owed. One call can clarify your options.
Many Bronx Highway crash victims start their medical care at a local urgent care clinic. If you went to CityMD, DocGo, or any walk-in center after your accident — we’ve built a full resource explaining how those records help support your case.
👉 See how urgent care visits impact your caseIf you were hit on the Cross Bronx, Bruckner, I-95, Bronx River Parkway, or Major Deegan — these local services can help right after the crash.
The first hours after a highway accident matter. If you went to the ER or had your car towed, get copies of everything — it can affect your case.
Whether it happened on the Bruckner, Deegan, Bronx River Pkwy, Cross Bronx Expressway or I-95 — it’s worth documenting. We’ll help you figure out what to do next.
We don’t just talk — we deliver. See what happened when Bronx clients put their accident cases in our hands.
Truth About Insurance CompaniesThese are real results from highway crashes in the Bronx — including collisions on the Bruckner, Cross Bronx, I-95, and Bronx River Parkway.
Client was stopped in traffic when struck by a speeding SUV. They suffered back injuries requiring injections and therapy.
A commercial van failed to yield at the on-ramp. The crash caused shoulder trauma and long-term mobility issues.
Client was clipped by a distracted driver changing lanes. Neck and back injuries led to pain management and work loss.
Multiple vehicles collided during rush hour. Our client’s chest hit the steering wheel, causing rib fractures and lung bruising.
These examples reflect real Bronx highway cases. Each outcome depends on the severity of injuries, medical documentation, and crash details.
Every highway accident is different — but the right legal strategy can make a huge difference in what you walk away with. Watch this video to learn what factors impact the value of your case.
From case investigation to payout, our local team handles every step. No call centers. No handoffs. Just Bronx people helping Bronx clients.
If you were injured in a crash on a Bronx highway, these resources can help with treatment, reporting, and follow-up.
These are real settlements from serious accidents on Bronx highways — including the Cross Bronx Expressway, Major Deegan, and Bruckner Blvd.
Our client was rear-ended during a sudden slowdown and pushed into the vehicle ahead. The chain reaction involved four cars. We proved a truck failed to brake and caused the pileup — resulting in a strong settlement.
A commercial box truck veered into our client’s lane. The crash led to shoulder surgery and months off work. The trucking company denied fault — we subpoenaed dash cam footage and forced a high-value settlement.
Heavy traffic led to a sudden stop. Our client was hit at full speed by a distracted driver and suffered a concussion and neck injuries. We documented treatment thoroughly and resolved the case before trial.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is evaluated on its own facts.
Whether you were hit on the Cross Bronx Expressway, I-95 (New England Thruway), Bruckner Blvd, the Major Deegan, or the Bronx River Parkway — we’ve handled it. These are the real cases we fight and win.
On roads like the Cross Bronx, I-95, and the Deegan, injuries can be severe — especially with trucks or high speeds involved. These are the injuries we see most often.
Sudden stops or truck impact can compress the spine or whip the neck. Pain may show up later as stiffness, numbness, or reduced range of motion.
Common even without direct head contact. A sudden jolt on the highway can shake the brain. Watch for dizziness, fog, or light sensitivity.
These often come from rear-end crashes or heavy truck force. Back injuries can affect daily movement and require long-term care or injections.
We see broken legs, arms, and ribs from highway rollovers, spinouts, or hard side impacts. Some fractures aren't obvious at the scene.
Bruising, sternum pain, or cracked ribs can come from the force of safety devices doing their job during a highway crash.
Joints are often twisted or slammed during a crash. These injuries can take months of physical therapy and may limit work or daily tasks.
Not every injury shows on the outside. Blunt force trauma can cause internal bleeding, organ impact, or deep tissue damage.
Many clients report flashbacks, fear of driving, sleep issues, or panic attacks after Bronx highway crashes. These are real injuries and deserve real care.
“The insurance company said my crash on the Cross Bronx was minor and didn’t offer anything. MyBronxLawyer fought back and got me a real settlement.”
Hurt in a Bronx highway crash? These are the questions our clients ask us most after accidents on the Cross Bronx, I-95, Bruckner, Deegan, and Bronx River Parkway.
Yes. Even when the other driver admits fault, their insurance company will still fight the payout. We make sure they don't downplay your injuries or delay your claim — especially with high-speed crashes on Bronx highways.
We handle crashes on every Bronx highway — Cross Bronx Expressway, Major Deegan, I-95, Bruckner Blvd, and Bronx River Pkwy. These roads are chaotic and dangerous, and we know how to work with police reports and traffic footage from these zones.
Yes. Highway accidents often involve multiple vehicles, and fault can be shared. We track down insurance for every party and figure out who’s legally responsible — even if the crash was a pileup or chain reaction.
It happens all the time — especially if police clear the scene quickly. As long as you follow up with a doctor or urgent care shortly after, we can still build a strong case. Just don’t wait too long.
Not if we’re on the case. We handle all communication with insurance, trucking companies, and adjusters. These companies act fast — so the sooner you contact us, the better.
For most Bronx highway crashes, you have 3 years — but if a city vehicle or MTA truck was involved, your window may be as short as 90 days. Don’t wait. We’ll check what deadlines apply to your case for free.
These questions come up often after crashes on roads like the Cross Bronx Expressway, I-95, Bruckner Blvd, Major Deegan, and Bronx River Parkway. The answers below may help clarify your next steps.
Call 911 and get medical help if needed. Take photos of the scene, vehicles, and roadway. Get contact and insurance info from all drivers. If possible, note the exact highway, direction, and nearest exit or landmark.
Yes. Multi-vehicle collisions are common on Bronx highways. Fault may be shared, and more than one insurance policy could apply. Even if you're unsure who caused it, a claim can still be made after an investigation.
New York follows comparative fault. That means even if you were partly responsible, you can still recover damages. Your compensation may be reduced by your percentage of fault, but you are not disqualified entirely.
It depends. Some claims settle in a few months, especially if injuries are documented early and liability is clear. More complex cases — involving trucks, disputed fault, or surgery — can take longer to resolve.
Not necessarily. You can still seek medical care within days of the crash and document your injuries. Insurance companies may question delays, but many people don’t feel pain right away — especially after highway impacts.
We’re not a national firm. We’re right here in the Bronx — handling real cases for real people every day. You won’t get passed around. You won’t deal with middlemen. And you’ll never wonder what’s going on with your case.
Whether you’re still deciding or ready to move forward, reach out. We’ll listen, give you clear next steps, and only move forward if you’re comfortable.

👉 See how urgent care visits impact your caseThese are real examples of what we’ve seen from people injured on Bronx highways — including crashes on the Deegan, Bruckner, Cross Bronx, Bronx River Parkway, and Hutchinson River Parkway.
Multi-car pileup on the Cross Bronx Expressway:
A client’s car was pinned between two vehicles near the Webster Ave exit. EMS responded, and she was taken to Jacobi with neck and lower back injuries requiring pain management.
Rear-end crash on the Major Deegan:
A Bronx driver was hit at high speed just past Exit 4 during evening traffic. The other driver admitted fault. Our client needed shoulder surgery and missed 6 weeks of work.
Side-swipe collision on the Bruckner Expressway:
A rideshare passenger was injured when another vehicle swerved into their lane. The Uber driver had dashcam video showing the impact. Client suffered a concussion and back strain.
Motorcycle crash on the Bronx River Parkway:
A motorcyclist struck loose gravel left from overnight roadwork. No warning signs were posted. The crash resulted in multiple fractures and a claim against a city contractor.
Spinout on the Hutchinson River Parkway:
During light rain, a Bronx commuter’s SUV hydroplaned into the median near the Pelham Bay exit. No guardrail was present. We investigated drainage issues and filed a notice of claim.
Every Bronx highway crash is different — but what you do in the first 72 hours matters. Write down what happened, save your photos, and reach out before speaking with insurance.
Watch as Matt breaks it down.
