If you’ve been injured in a head-on car accident in the Bronx or anywhere in NYC, call Apicella & Schlesinger Attorneys at Law.
Head-on car accidents are among the most dangerous and devastating types of collisions. If you or a loved one has been involved in a head-on crash in New York City—especially in the Bronx—you may be entitled to significant compensation.

Why Head-On Collisions Are So Dangerous
Unlike rear-end or side-impact crashes, head-on collisions involve two vehicles striking each other front-to-front, often at high speeds. The force of impact doubles the trauma, leading to serious injuries such as:
- Traumatic brain injuries (TBI)
- Spinal cord injuries
- Broken bones and internal bleeding
- Permanent disability or wrongful death
The emotional and financial aftermath can be overwhelming. That’s why it’s essential to secure the right legal representation early on.
Who Is Liable in a Head-On Collision?
Determining fault in a head-on crash is complex. In NYC, liability often hinges on:
- Wrong-way driving or lane departure
- Distracted or impaired driving
- Speeding or reckless behavior
- Improper road signage or maintenance (which may implicate a city agency)
At Apicella & Schlesinger, we launch a full investigation to preserve evidence, interview witnesses, and consult with crash reconstruction experts—ensuring no stone is left unturned in proving who was responsible.
What Compensation Can You Recover?
Victims of head-on car accidents may be entitled to compensation for both economic and non-economic damages, including:
Economic Damages:
- Medical bills (emergency care, surgeries, therapy, future treatment)
- Lost wages and loss of earning capacity
- Property damage (vehicle repair or replacement)
Non-Economic Damages:
- Pain and suffering
- Emotional distress
- Loss of enjoyment of life
- Loss of companionship in wrongful death cases
In some instances involving gross negligence, punitive damages may also apply.
