Car Accident and Personal Injury Lawyer on the Upper West Side

The Upper West Side combines dense residential and pedestrian activity — schools, museums, Central Park access — with major north-south corridors that carry constant traffic. Broadway, Amsterdam, Columbus, and West End Avenue each have their own accident patterns. 96th Street and 79th Street are the most-crashed cross-town streets. The West Side Highway entrances at 79th and 96th create chronic merging conflicts.

Amparo Law Firm represents Upper West Side residents injured in motor vehicle accidents, pedestrian strikes, and cyclist collisions.
  • Broadway. Major commercial corridor with high pedestrian density. Crashes concentrate at the major cross-streets — 72nd, 79th, 86th, 96th.
  • Amsterdam Avenue — high-speed north-south corridor.
  • Columbus Avenue — corridor with school zones and pedestrian density.
  • West End Avenue — relatively calmer residential corridor with periodic incidents.
