We Care at
Siegel &
Coonerty

We are personal injury lawyers with deep experience in representing survivors of serious injuries, such as fractures, surgeries and traumatic brain injuries, or TBI. TBI is one of our passions, and we have recovered millions of dollars in compensation for our clients who have survived a traumatic brain injury.

Our mission at Siegel & Coonerty is twofold when it comes to our clients. First, we want to provide them with any information, insight, and resources that will help them obtain their maximum functional capacity. Next, our injury lawyers provide expert, high-level legal representation at all times. We hear you, and we believe you. You are not alone.

Sean Coonerty

Managing Partner

Sean is the Managing Partner at Siegel & Coonerty. Sean grew up in West Islip, Long Island, NY. After graduating college at Binghamton University, he was offered a scholarship and attended Brooklyn Law School. Following his second year in Law School he began as a Summer Associate for a large and prominent medical malpractice defense firm, where he was hired as an Associate Attorney directly out of law school. However, after a couple of years defending doctors and hospitals, and witnessing first-hand the injustices suffered by the plaintiffs, Sean abruptly changed his career path. He knew his true calling was to fight for the victims of negligence, not defend the perpetrators. In February, 2001, he began working with Andy at his top tier, plaintiff’s personal injury and medical malpractice firm. By January, 2008, Sean became Andy’s partner, and together they founded and developed Siegel & Coonerty, LLP in 2011. Sean has been honored as a Super Lawyer continuously since 2014. He is a member of various other legal organizations, including the New York State Trial Lawyers Association, where he is vocal within the committee on New York State Labor Laws.

Super Lawyers is a rating service of outstanding lawyers from more than 70 practice areas who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement. The selection process includes independent research, peer nominations and peer evaluations.
The objective of Super Lawyers is to create a credible, comprehensive and diverse listing of outstanding attorneys in New York that can be used as a resource for attorneys and consumers searching for legal counsel.
At Siegel & Coonerty, we believe it is important that the lawyer you choose to handle your injury case be a member of the select attorneys who have been chosen as a Super Lawyer.
Although, you should still beware: Not all attorneys selected as a Super Lawyer are as experienced or have the requisite know-how to handle a complex personal injury matter in the way Siegel & Coonerty do.
Andy Siegel has been selected as a New York Super Lawyer continuously since 2010; Sean Coonerty since 2014. Each year Siegel & Coonerty dedicate their Super Lawyer statement to the courageous survivors of traumatic brain injury, as the firm has a compassionate interest in seeking justice for these individuals.
