About The Rothenberg Law Firm

The Rothenberg Law Firm is a personal injury practice with four offices: Manhattan, Philadelphia, and Lakewood and Hackensack in New Jersey.

The firm states that its attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, so a client pays nothing unless the case is won, and that a consultation is available at no charge.

What this firm has earned Every one from a measured value, with the evidence behind it

LFL Certified 2026

Scored 73 out of 100 on measured evidence, above the 70 this tier requires, with every eligibility gate its state allows us to check cleared.

No public discipline

None of the 9 named attorneys carries a disciplinary status on the public register: no disbarment, suspension or disciplinary resignation. Those statuses persist, so the check reaches back years, but it would not show a censure or a suspension since lifted.

573 client reviews

Counted across 6 verified Google Business Profile listings, not collected by us and not solicited through us.

4.81 average over 573 reviews

A high rating is easy at low volume and hard to hold at this one. Pillar C scores it against the market rather than against five stars.

Fee terms published

Our personal injury attorneys work on a contingency fee basis, which means that you do not pay anything unless we win your case.

103 results published

Across 9 case types on the firm's own site. We read the page and counted what is on it; the amounts are the firm's and we have not confirmed them.

Results are specific to their facts and do not guarantee similar outcomes. Firms submit results through their claimed profile; only results we can substantiate are published with amounts.

Attorneys 9 attorneys · every licence checked against the New York attorney register · 7 more people are named by the firm without a role, so we do not call them attorneys

Frequently asked questions

How much does The Rothenberg Law Firm charge?
The Rothenberg Law Firm publishes a contingency fee, which means the fee is a share of what the case recovers and there is nothing to pay if it recovers nothing. The rate itself is not published, so ask for it in writing, along with how case expenses are handled and whether they come out of the recovery before or after the fee. The first consultation is free, which is the place to ask.
Does The Rothenberg Law Firm offer a free consultation?
Yes. The Rothenberg Law Firm publishes a free initial consultation.
Where does The Rothenberg Law Firm have offices?
The Rothenberg Law Firm publishes four offices, in Manhattan, Philadelphia, Lakewood and Hackensack. Addresses and the Google listing behind each one are on this profile under Offices.
Who are the attorneys at The Rothenberg Law Firm?
The Rothenberg Law Firm names 16 attorneys on its own site, and each is listed on this profile with the page we read them from. 9 of 16 named attorneys are currently registered and none carries an adverse status. 7 could not be told apart from namesakes in the register and are counted neither way.
Are the case results The Rothenberg Law Firm publishes verified?
No. The Rothenberg Law Firm publishes 103 case results with amounts on its own site. We counted them and we did not confirm them: the figures are the firm's. Pillar B scores whether a firm publishes outcomes and discloses them properly, including whether a prior-results disclaimer appears beside them, not whether the amounts are right. Past results do not predict another case.
What has Law Firm Listings verified about The Rothenberg Law Firm?
The Rothenberg Law Firm scores 70 and sits at Certified. Passed: licensure, discipline, entity registration, website and footprint. Every row of the scorecard above names where the value came from and when it was read. Nothing on this profile was supplied by the firm for payment, and no placement here can be bought.
