Law Office of James G. Brooker

The Law Office of James G. Brooker is a solo legal practice located at 1347 Lyell Avenue in the Lyell-Otis neighborhood of Rochester, NY. Attorney James Garrison Brooker earned his law degree from SUNY Buffalo Law School and has been a member of the New York State Bar since 1991, bringing over three decades of legal experience to his clients. The firm concentrates on representing individuals in personal injury claims, Social Security and disability matters, and workers' compensation cases.

The practice handles a focused range of case types within its three core areas:

• Personal injury: automobile accidents, motorcycle accidents, trucking accidents, slip and fall incidents, dog bites, wrongful death, and head and spinal injuries
• Social Security and disability: assistance with disability benefit claims and appeals
• Workers' compensation: representation for employees injured on the job

The office is open Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM and is closed on weekends. The building is wheelchair accessible, which can be particularly relevant for clients dealing with injury-related mobility limitations.

This firm is known for its long-standing, single-attorney model focused exclusively on injury and disability law. Rather than a general practice covering many legal areas, the Law Office of James G. Brooker has maintained a consistent concentration on personal injury, workers' compensation, and Social Security disability since its establishment. With more than thirty years of bar membership in New York, the practice represents a sustained presence in Rochester's west-side legal community.

The office sits on Lyell Avenue in the Lyell-Otis neighborhood on Rochester's west side, an area shaped by its proximity to the Interstate 390 and 490 interchange. The neighborhood is a historically diverse corridor with a mix of small businesses, restaurants, and shops lining Lyell Avenue. Holy Apostles Church, a local landmark dating to 1884, is situated along the same stretch. Downtown Rochester is roughly ten minutes away by car, and several bus lines serve the Lyell Avenue corridor for those relying on public transit.
