Vaccaro Law

Vaccaro Law is New York and New Jersey’s leading attorneys and advocates for cyclists. We combine a growing and successful personal injury practice with cutting-edge litigation approaches, innovative social media-based business development, and public policy consulting and advocacy that has shaped New York City’s public realm for nearly twenty years. Starting in 2005 at global law firm Debevoise & Plimpton, Vaccaro Law principal Steve Vaccaro has delivered justice-including substantial compensation in the millions-to thousands of cyclists and pedestrians in New York and New Jersey. Our commitment to ending traffic violence is reflected not only in our program of donating 10% of net profits each year to fund and fuel transportation policy change, but in our extensive pro bono practice on behalf of victims of traffic violence. Steve has long served as a board member and advisor to leading cycling organizations such as Transportation Alternatives, Bike New York, Families for Safe Streets, the New York Cycle Club, New Jersey Bike/Walk Coalition, and StreetsPAC. As both a lawyer, policy advocate and community organizer, Steve has personally helped win and expand bike lanes, bike share, speed cameras, congestion pricing, cycling law reform, driver accountability laws, and other measures to reclaim our streets from the private automobile.
